A lottery winner who thought her husband was playing an April Fools' Day prank when he told her they had scooped £53million has returned to making lunches for pensioners a week after their big win. Angela Maxwell said she would not give up her five-hour shift preparing meals at the lunch club at Coningsby Community Hall in Lincolnshire despite winning millions of pounds. The 67-year-old was seen arriving there yesterday morning, just days after her husband Richard stunned her with the news they had won £53million. Scroll down for video . Angela Maxwell has returned to her shift at a local lunch club for pensioners a week after scooping £53million with her husband Richard . Asked what they planned to do with the money last week the couple, who have two adult children, said they would buy a new minibus for pensioners in the community. Otherwise they intended to carry on as normal, they said, with the occasional splurge on holidays and designer clothes. Mrs Maxwell had just returned from her shift at the community hall with a stack of dirty tea towels for washing last Thursday when she learned of the win. At first she said she thought her husband was playing an April Fools' Day prank, she said at the time. 'I just didn't believe it, then he showed me the numbers on the website and I dropped the basket of tea towels on the floor,' she said. 'I then just sat down in the chair for about half-an-hour stunned.' Despite becoming an overnight multimillionaire, Mrs Maxwell said she would not stop working at the lunch club where pensioners are served a two course meal for £3. She spent more than four hours at the club yesterday, the Mirror reports, leaving shortly before 3pm after the sitting. Mrs Maxwell said she would not give up her role at Coningsby Community Hall (pictured) where she prepares meals for pensioners . The couple said they would not change their lives too drastically despite the windfall, describing themselves as 'simple people'. 'Winning this amount of money would change anyone but we are going to try and stay grounded and live the way we've always done,' Mr Maxwell, a cancer survivor, said last week. As well as a new minibus for local pensioners, the Maxwells said they would spend their money on upgrading the family to First Class on a forthcoming holiday to New Zealand. Mr Maxwell, an avid golf fan, said he would also like to tour the world to attend tournaments and competitions. 'Richard says he wants to travel round the world watching sport. I can go with him but I don't think I'll be watching any sport. 'It'll be retail therapy for me,' added Mrs Maxwell. The couple said they planned to use the money on buying a new minibus for local pensioners and upgrading their family to First Class on an already planned holiday to New Zealand .
