A postcard created by Pete Doherty in his own blood is to be raffled for charity in his current hometown of Marlborough.

A number of local Wiltshire celebrities were asked to decorate the cards for the We Love Marlborough initiative.

Doherty's contribution will be displayed until the end of July in a gallery in the town, when it will be raffled for charity, with tickets costing only £5 each.

Fellow Babyshambles bandmates Drew McConnell and Adam Ficek have also made postcards, along with Alize Meurisse, who created the artwork for the band's second album, last year's 'Shotters Nation'.

Money raised from the raffles will go to a range of local and national charities.

Doherty's postcard can be seen at Welovemarlborough.co.uk.
