As well as making its lucky Grand Prize winner a multi-millionaire, the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, Cheshire, will raise money for the Bowelbabe Fund for Cancer Research UK.
Mum-of-two and journalist Dame Deborah was diagnosed with incurable bowel cancer in 2016 and went on to host the You, Me and the Big C podcast on BBC Radio 5 Live about her struggles with her illness raising awareness of the disease.
Given just days to live in May 2022, Dame Debs launched her Bowelbabe Fund to fund vital research “to give one final f*** you to cancer, and give more Deborahs more time”.
Debs captured the hearts of the nation and smashed her £250,000 target in a day.
Just before she died the grand total stood at a whopping £7million, and today more than £12.6million has been raised in her honour.
Mum Heather said: “As a family we are so proud of Deborah’s legacy, and it’s an honour to continue what she started.
“She would be so excited to have an Omaze house dedicated to her Fund, she loved it and always entered the draws.
“Her brother Ben is gutted that he can’t win this house, he has a standing order every month.
“It’s such a stunning house, and will be a wonderful opportunity for a family to enjoy new beginnings and new memories together.
“And that resonates so nicely with the Bowelbabe Fund - it’s more money raised to fund more research to help save more lives.
“The money raised will go towards ensuring families like ours get the chance to make new memories with their loved ones.”
Channelling her daughter’s fundraising spirit, Heather added: “I can just hear her now, I know she would be saying, ‘let’s push and get it to £3million’.
“So I can’t help myself… wouldn’t it be amazing if we could reach at least £2million.”
