Residents of an East Lancashire town are £1,000 richer following their success in the People's Postcode Lottery.
The winning ticket today (October 10) was in Nelson, and those with a ticket and a BB9 0LS postcode were awarded the prize in the daily draw.
The winning postcode belongs to players in James Nelson Way.
Subscriptions to the postcode lottery support a range of charities across the UK, with a minimum of 33 per cent of the ticket prices going to charity.
The People’s Postcode Lottery manages lotteries for 20 charities, with each one having one draw a month.
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 provided more than £1.1 billion in funding which is helping thousands of organisations and projects.
