Seven Hertfordshire areas were successful on the People's Postcode Lottery in December.

As 2023 came to an end, last month saw postcodes in Watford, Hitchin and Stevenage all successful in the competition.

For Watford, the winning postcode was WD18 0JQ, which covers an area of Rickmansworth Road, near West Herts Sports Ground.

Each month, those who partake in the competition pay £12 to have the chance to win up to £30,000.

A share of £3 million or more is awarded to "Postcode Millions" winners, while book vouchers and smaller £10, £15 and £20 prizes can also be won.
