One lucky person living in Suffolk has scooped up a top prize in this month's Premium Bonds prize draw. 

Unlike other investments, where investors earn interest or a regular dividend income, Premium Bonds owners are entered into a monthly prize draw and can win between £25 and £1million.

One person won a top prize of £100,000 just missing out on the jackpot of £1m.

Two people won £50,000, four won £25,000 and 300 people won £1,000 with the grand total of winnings in Suffolk reaching £875,000. 

It comes after people living in Suffolk won nearly £1.2m in March's prize draw.

Premium Bonds are an investment product issued by National Savings and Investment (NS&I).

Andrew Westhead, NS&I retail director, said: "The quickest way to check if you have won a prize is to use our Premium Bonds prize checker app, check online, or even ask Alexa from the second working day of each month onwards."

Premium Bonds are available by investing at least £25.
