And on Friday, Iris and her daughter Pam Barlow visited the Hospice to collect her winnings and meet the fundraising team!
"I'm still on cloud nine," said Iris from Romford.
"When my daughter told me the good news I kept asking if it was true.
"It is more money than I've ever had and I didn't really believe it until I had the cheque in my hands."
We're absolutely thrilled for Iris who has been playing our lottery since it began in 2011.
"I have been planning a dinner with my family to celebrate my birthday and now it will be a lot easier," said Iris.
The lottery helps the Hospice raise almost £500,000 a year to fund its specialist end of life care services.
