In the United Kingdom, the owner of a 6 million hryvnia prize is being sought: the ticket was purchased in Wales.

According to ТСН: The operators of the National Lottery of Great Britain are actively searching for the lucky owner of the winning EuroMillions ticket purchased in Powys county. This ticket won more than 112 thousand pounds (approximately 6 million 377 thousand hryvnias) in the draw on December 12, but the winner has not claimed their money yet.

Searches are ongoing for the Briton who became the owner of the six-figure prize in the EuroMillions draw. The winning ticket was bought in Powys county in Wales, at one of the National Lottery retail outlets.

This ticket is one of three winning tickets in Britain, each worth 112,091 pounds. Anyone who purchased tickets in Powys is urged to check their results. The winner has the opportunity to claim their money until June 10, 2026.

Winning numbers and comments

The winning ticket matched five main numbers and one 'lucky star'. Winning numbers are: 7, 25, 30, 37, 41, as well as stars 5 and 11. The main jackpot of 47,164,703 pounds was won by a participant from Spain.

“What a wonderful way to end 2025 — winning a six-figure amount in EuroMillions. We really want to reunite our lucky winner with their prize, so we urge EuroMillions players to check their tickets — you might be the very winner,” said Carter.

He also asked the potential ticket owner to pay attention to their possible participation:

“Were you in the Powys area in the week leading up to the draw on December 12? Perhaps you are not a local — you might have traveled there a day before Christmas, visiting relatives or friends, purchased a EuroMillions ticket, and then returned home, hiding it in a safe place. If this sounds familiar, think carefully about where this mysterious ticket might be, because I really want the winner to claim their money,” said a senior winner relations advisor at Allwyn.

“The lucky winner from Powys is just one of many EuroMillions winners in Great Britain in 2025, who have received life-changing amounts. Overall, there were four jackpot wins in Great Britain this year, totaling 199 million pounds,” added Carter.

He also highlighted that the most significant moment was the win of 83 million pounds in January 2025, and the win of 65 million pounds on Valentine’s Day. October brought two separate jackpots of 26 million and 25 million pounds in one week.

According to National Lottery rules, winners have 180 days from the draw date to claim their prize, holding the ticket.

Additionally, 20-year-old Canadian Brenda O'Bane-Vega won in the Gagnant à Vie lottery and chose a lifetime 'allowance' of 1000 dollars every week instead of a one-time payment of 1 million dollars. Although the decision faced criticism on social media for potential losses due to inflation, financial analysts at Moneywise consider this choice smart.

This situation regarding lottery winnings highlights the importance of checking tickets, as large prizes can remain unclaimed due to indifference or uncertainty of winners. Time is running out, and the winner is advised to act quickly, as there is a strict deadline for claiming the prize.

It is also interesting that lotteries continue to bring significant amounts to winners, creating not only financial opportunities but also unique stories and chances for those who try their luck in the game.
