One lucky UK ticket-holder of the Euromillions lottery has just scooped £26.1 millions, an unimaginable amount of money.
My sister and I have often discussed what we would do if we were lucky enough to win such a sum, and our idea would be to create a charitable trust from which we could donate money to worthwhile causes.
We get some interest from discussing which causes might benefit from such a Trust. Of course, we would donate to the relief of the people of Haiti, and I would like to do something for the Dogs Trust who are always under pressure of funds. I would also like to do something for the Benedictine monks of St. Augustine’s Abbey in Ramsgate, Kent, who are unable to afford the upkeep of their abbey and, absent a benefactor, are looking to sell their abbey and relocate to a place that is less expensive to maintain.
Alas, this is sheer speculation for we haven’t won a lottery prize. Yet!
