THE search is on to find a Wirral punter who has just two weeks to claim their £1 million pound National Lottery win.

The ticket was bought for the draw on Saturday, May 14. The winning raffle number is RUBY 5401 7523 and the deadline to claim the prize is November 10.

If no-one comes forward with the winning ticket before the prize claim deadline, then the prize money, plus all the interest the prize has generated, will go to National Lottery Good Causes.

A National Lottery spokesperson said: "We're eager to find the mystery ticket-holder and unite them with their winnings – this amazing prize could really make a huge difference to somebody's life.

"We're urging everyone who bought a Lotto ticket in this area to check their old tickets again or look anywhere a missing ticket could be hiding.

"Try checking in the pockets of clothing, in wallets, bags and down the back of the sofa – someone out there could literally be sitting on a fortune!

"We have the champagne on ice and our fingers crossed that the lucky winner comes forward to claim their win."

Anyone who believes they have the winning ticket should call the National Lottery Line on 0844 338 7551 or email help@national-lottery.co.uk
