The National Lottery are appealing to players across County Durham, as a £1 Million lottery prize remains unclaimed. A winning UK Millionaire Maker code from the March 13, 2026 draw was sold in the Hartlepool area, but nearly five months on, the millionaire has yet to show up. Time is ticking, as the winner only has until September 9th to claim the prize!
The National Lottery operator, Allwyn, is making a final push for people to search their pockets, bags, and gloveboxes before the September 9 deadline.
If the prize isn't claimed in time, the cash won't go to waste—it will be redirected to fund community projects across the UK. To protect the winner's future anonymity, officials have shared the town where it was bought, but won't reveal the exact shop.
The winner needs to contact The National Lottery Immediately to claim their prize.
The Millionaire Matchmaker codes from March 13th are:
