LUCKY Hindley Green residents have won the Postcode Lottery this morning, Friday.

Residents in the WN2 4HE area of the town are celebrating winning £1,000 in the draw.

Those living on Athol Crescent in Hindley Green, Wigan, claimed the huge prize this morning if they were signed up.

The People’s Postcode Lottery is a subscription lottery which aims to raise money for charities while also bringing cash prizes to homes across the UK.

Prizes are announced every day of the month - with £30,000 jackpots and £1,000 prizes for 20 different postcodes every day.

Players can sign up with their postcode and pay £12 per month with a chance to win when they are automatically entered into a draw.

A minimum of 33 per cent from each ticket goes to charity, and players have raised more than £950 million for over 9,000 charities and good causes since 2005.
