Carmarthenshire is officially one of the luckiest locations in Wales for Loteri Cymru winners with nearly half of the county's players winning a prize in the first seven draws.

In total 54.66 per cent of Carmarthenshire players have won prizes including two residents who scooped a £1,000 loto+ prize and others winning prizes ranging from a free ticket to £250.

Loter Cymru chief executive Sue Carter said: "We've been hugely encouraged by the high level of interest in Wales' first society lottery and are pleased to see the number of winners from Carmarthenshire.

Clearly the county is onto a something of a winning streak."
