Neighbours living in 18 lucky streets in Wales have cause for celebration after their postcodes were drawn in the People's Postcode Lottery this fortnight. And residents in one street have particular reason to smile after they won £35,000 each.
The People's Postcode Lottery manages lotteries for 20 Postcode Trusts and a third of the price of every ticket bought is donated to charity. You can find out about the causes being supported on the lottery's website here. Players pay £10 per month to enter into the daily draw with each daily draw shelling out £1,000 to residents in 20 lucky streets across the UK. There's also a weekly draw on a Thursday that awards £10 each to players in 1,000 postcodes.
Five players in Cardiff's Harris Avenue, Rumney, bagged prizes totalling £35,000. Each of them won £30,000 in cash plus a £5,000 holiday prize when their postcode was picked out.
