A man who has spent years helping disabled people find a home has won a £2.5million country house in a raffle.
Grant Carson, 58, scooped the five-bedroom farmhouse set in eight acres of the Lake District after entering the Omaze Million Pound House Draw. Widower Grant says he can now get a dog which was always out of the question due to chronic arthritis he has had since he was seven. He can now afford a dog walker.
Delighted Grant has also been given £100,000 in cash - plus the house comes mortgage free, with all stamp duty and legal fees covered. Grant, who has never won anything in his life, was stunned when the Omaze team surprised him at his home in Glasgow to tell him.
