A three-million pound luxury villa in Mallorca has been won by Scotsman Graham Dunlop, 52, after he entered the Omaze draw as part of a campaign to make a guaranteed minimum £1,000,000 donation to Alzheimer’s Research UK. He also walks away with £250,000 in cash.
According to Omaze, there’s no stamp duty, mortgage or conveyancing fees to pay.
And with furnishings included, the Grand Prize Winner will now be free to holiday in the villa, rent it out or sell up and walk away a multimillionaire.
The luxury villa comes with all furnishings included, a swimming pool, four bedrooms and four bathrooms and amazing views of the Tramuntana mountains.
As well as making Graham a multi-millionaire, the Omaze Million Pound House Superdraw, Mallorca, also raised £3,100,000 for Alzheimer’s Research UK, the UK’s leading dementia research charity, in just six weeks.
Omaze was launched in the UK in 2020, and they have raised over £25,000,000 for some of the biggest and most loved British charities, like NHS Charities Together, the RNLI, Teenage Cancer Trust, The Prince’s Trust, British Heart Foundation, GOSH charity, the RSPCA and the NSPCC.
Hilary Evans, Chief Executive at Alzheimer’s Research UK, said: “We’re delighted that Omaze, and all those who entered the Omaze Million Pound House Superdraw in Mallorca, have raised a phenomenal £3,100,000 for Alzheimer’s Research UK.
“Nearly a million people in the UK have dementia, and we urgently need to find more and better treatments so that we can take away the fear, harm and heartbreak that this devastating condition causes.
“The vital funds raised will support our Clinical Accelerator Programme, which will boost clinical research taking place in the NHS and ultimately speed up progress towards a cure. This is an exciting step forward in our efforts to transform the lives of people affected by dementia
“Thank you Omaze, and everyone who entered, for standing with us for a cure.”

Marvin Le Martian€7 million spent on tickets, €4M as prizes and €3M to the charity. Not difficult really!
Totally wasted on a tight Scotsman.
James JonesBit heavy on the mansplaining James. I’m delighted for anyone who wins anything on lotteries and in draws as I never win nowt! But there’s always the next one.
Marvin, have you ever done el Gordo the Christmas lottery? Are you happy for the winners? Do you understand that the only real winner is the Spanish government who tax the tickets and then the winnings? Who knows into who’s pockets the taxation eventually lands? Yes, the organisers of Omaze make money! They help a different charity every month, rather like the way the UK lottery works. In Spain it’s just Tax. The comments of envy in the sister paper “Ultima Hora” are so sad. Can people not just congratulate the winner or is that too far beyond “woke”
The prize worth is greater than the amount the charity are receiving! Work that one out?
