Four lucky residents of Dilton Marsh landed themselves some prize money when the People's Post Code Lottery.

The winning residents of Friars Close, who wish to remain anonymous, have each scooped £1,000 as their postcode BA13 4BS was drawn earlier this week.

People's Postcode Lottery Ambassador Judie McCourt said: "Congratulations to our Dilton Marsh players. I hope they enjoy spending their winnings."

A minimum of 30 per cent of ticket sales goes directly to charities and players of People's Postcode Lottery, and they have raised more than £212 million for good causes across Britain and internationally.

A local cause that has received support from players is Alheimer's Support which was awarded £20,000 last year to expand its programme of day clubs.
