Four lucky people are celebrating after winning £1,000 each thanks to their postcode.

They won the money when their postcode, CA7 2EF, was announced as a daily prize winner with the People’s Postcode Lottery yesterday.

Danyl Johnson, ambassador of the People’s Postcode Lottery, said: “What great news to start the week.

"Congratulations to our winners in Wigton.”

At least 32 per cent of ticket sales goes directly to charities.

The People’s Postcode Lottery has raised more than £500 million for scores of good causes.

The draw was supported by the Wildlife Trust which has received more than £10 million in funding from lottery players.

Many good causes chosen by the winners of the lottery have also benefitted from players' support, and the next opportunity local charities will have to apply for funding will be early next year.
