The Galloway's lottery can be played for as little as £1 a week – winners have to match three, four, five or all six digits in the correct sequence to win a cash prize.
Having supported the charity lottery for more than six years, Bob was understandably thrilled to receive the news of his win.
He said: "I am over the moon! I couldn't believe it when I heard I had won the top prize.

Iain Pearson, Galloway’s CEO, added: “It is thanks to our dedicated supporters like Bob that we can continue providing vital services for blind and partially sighted people.
“Bob's win is a fantastic example of how the lottery can make a real difference to people's lives and we are so pleased for him. We hope that his success will encourage even more people to sign up and take part in the lottery, maybe even becoming our next big winner.”
