A local lottery winner in the East Riding of Yorkshire will instantly become a millionaire if all their numbers match the winning draw.
The lucky Brit has just over a month left to claim the whopping EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker prize.
Spokesperson Andy Carter said: “Time is running out for this ticket-holder!
“We’re urging everyone to double-check their EuroMillions tickets, and have a look in the pockets of clothing, in wallets, bags and down the back of the sofa.
“This money could really make a difference to someone’s life, and this is the only prize left to be claimed from the special draw.”
Euromillions creates a millionaire in every draw and in the special draw 20 Brits became millionaires last April 2023.
But one winner is yet to check their ticket and come forward to claim their prize.
Mr Carter said: “We have the champagne on ice and our fingers crossed that the last of the 20 UK winners from the draw comes forward to claim their prize.”
