Bromyard farmer Fraser Hawkins scooped the £60,000 cash prize courtesy of online competition specialist BOTB. He had been feeding the cows when he received a video call from BOTB presenter Christian Williams telling him the ‘udderly’ amazing news.
“I couldn’t believe it when Christian told me I had won. It was the best day ever!” the Daily Draws Competition winner said. “I need to be sensible with most of it, but I will probably treat myself to a holiday. I would love to go to the Alps in the summer.” Mr Hawkins currently runs the 520-acre, mixed Warren Farm with his mum and dad.
“My three older brothers are off doing other things, so when my mum and dad decide to retire I would like to take control of the farm,” he added.
Presenter Christian said: “I grew up on a farm mucking out pigs and helping my dad so I know exactly how much work goes into farming.
“It’s a tough industry to be in, but hopefully winning this fantastic cash prize will make things a bit easier for Fraser and his family.
“I’m sure Fraser will be rubbing his brother's faces in it now that he has won.”
BOTB hands over the keys to a stunning dream car each week as well as a lifestyle prize. Founded by William Hindmarch in 1999, it has given away £64m-worth of cars so far.
