The National Lottery is desperately searching for the owner of a £64,000 jackpot winning ticket bought in Manchester who is yet to come forward.
The winning ticket was confirmed to have been purchased in Manchester earlier this month and matches all five main numbers, totalling a large sum of money, but the prize winnings are still unclaimed at this moment in time.
The draw was made on 14th July 2020 and the numbers on that date were 11, 22, 30, 37, 47, with the Lucky Star numbers being 9 and 10.
The lucky ticket-holder has until 10th January 2021 to claim their prize.
Anyone not in possession of their ticket, but for whatever reason believes they have a genuine claim, can still make a proposal in writing to Camelot, but this must be done within 30 days of the draw.

Speaking on the unclaimed winnings, Andy Carter – Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery – said: “We’re desperate to find this mystery ticket-holder and unite them with their winnings,”
“This amazing prize could really make a huge difference to somebody’s life.”

He continued: “In the current situation, we’re encouraging everyone to check their tickets online via The National Lottery website or via The National Lottery app. You can scan your retail draw-based game tickets on The National Lottery App to see if you’ve won a prize.”
“Try checking in the pockets of clothing, in wallets, bags and down the back of the sofa [because] we have the champagne on ice and our fingers crossed that the lucky winner comes forward to claim their win.”
“While we are all trying to do the right thing by staying indoors as much as possible at the moment, it’s a good opportunity to dig out and check those old lottery tickets.”

If nobody presents the winning ticket before the prize claim deadline, then the prize money – plus all the interest it has generated – will go to help National Lottery-funded projects across the UK, so get checking your numbers Manchester as this could be your lucky day.

Manchester has been named one of the most ‘stressful’ places to drive in the UK
Emily Sergeant
The UK’s most challenging driving locations have been revealed, according to new data… and isn’t good news for Manchester.
No matter whether you’re a new driver or have years of experience behind the wheel, some roads can test even the most confident of motorists.
From congestion and poor road conditions, to limited parking and higher incident rates, it’s fair to say that some areas make driving more stressful.
But which parts of the UK are the hardest to drive in?
Well, in a bid to answer that question, MoneySuperMarket has analysed a whole host of data – such as road infrastructure, road safety, road conditions, vehicle crime concerns, and insurance-related trends – for 58 UK cities, boroughs, and local authorities to create a drivability score and discover the locations that drivers find most stressful.

Manchester, unfortunately, claimed third place on the list of top 10 most challenging locations for drivers – with an overall drivability score of 25 out of 100.
Other northern cities and towns like Leeds, Preston, Blackpool, Bradford, Wakefield, and Oldham have founded themselves in the top 10 too, meaning the North West is sadly the most-represented area.

The findings also reflect some of the concerns drivers experience on the road, with more than a third of motorists (34%) saying they have avoided driving because they were travelling in an unfamiliar area, while almost a third (32%) have chosen not to drive due to heavy traffic or congestion.
Dealing with impatient or aggressive drivers was the most commonly cited source of stress, with almost two-thirds of motorists (65%) saying they find situations such as tailgating and beeping stressful.
“Driving is part of everyday life for millions of people, but our research shows just how much stress and uncertainty it can bring,” commented Alicia Hempsted, who is a Car Insurance Expert at MoneySuperMarket.
“Particularly in areas where there are more incidents recorded, car-related thefts are more common, or where there is heavier traffic or less familiar roads.”
