A mystery National Lottery winner missed out on a £10million jackpot after failing to come forward. The winner did not make themselves known within the 180-day deadline to claim their prize and as a result lost the £10.6million prize. The money will now be donated to charities supported by the National Lottery. A spokesperson for Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery said: 'The majority of prizes that would go unclaimed would be the smaller tier prizes. Currently, there are five 'major' National Lottery prizes worth more than £3.2million which are still yet to be claimed.
