RESIDENTS in parts of West Cumbria have bagged a generous prize in the People's Postcode Lottery.

Those with a lottery ticket and a CA23 3BA postcode were awarded a £1,000 win in one of the fundraising lottery's daily prize draws.

This postcode is for people living in the Cleator and Ennerdale area.

Subscriptions to the postcode lottery support a range of charities across the UK.

A minimum of 33 per cent of the ticket prices goes to charity.

The lottery is hugely popular nationally and supports "a wide range of charities and good causes across Britain and around the world".

To date, they’ve generously provided more than £1.1 billion in funding, which is helping thousands of organisations and projects.
