Jennifer Matthews and her husband David decided to give their house away to a lucky winner as she battled a life-threatening heart condition
A woman who was sent death threats after raffling off her £400,000 self-built dream home has launched a second raffle in a bid to help those struggling to get on the property ladder.
"What happened with this bonkers journey was that we got an awful lot of flak," Jennifer, now 51, told LancsLive. "We got death threats and people who had entered and didn't win became obsessed and said it was a scam. Since her diagnosis Jennifer, who owns several rented properties, has started selling them off when they become vacant. And despite the grief that Jennifer and David were subjected to they have decided to once more brave the raffle market.
Since Jennifer launched her latest raffle just a few days ago she has already sold thousands of tickets priced at just £1 each. She and David are currently in the process of moving to a newly-built home elsewhere in Lancashire.
