Lottery winner goes back to stacking shelves
A Lottery winner who won a £2.49million jackpot has returned to work stacking shelves at Asda.Nicky Cusack, 46, was battling cancer when she claimed her prize back in 2009 and says it was the thought of returning to work that kept her going.
After successfully finishing her chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment, she checked back in to Asda Walmart in Swindon, earning £6.30 an hour – just above the minimum wage.
She said: ''I didn't even know if I would see the next day or not, I wanted to stay normal. It is just about being who you want to be.
“Some people say 'why is she back? There is no need for her to work'. No there isn't, but it is the company and your friends, that is what makes a working environment.
“Every job gets to you after a while but I enjoy my job. That's sad maybe but I just get on and do it.
“I am quite happy going to work and coming home. Going to do bits and bobs, but at the end of the day your health is important.”
Nicky has avoided lavish spending, her biggest expenditure was a £250,000 four bedroom home in Swindon. She has also donated money to charities with £3,000 in total to Macmillan Cancer Support, Prospect Hospice, Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign, Help for Heroes and Meningitis Trust
