Winners of tonight’s National Lottery draw have a 180-day window to claim their prize money.

For those who bought their tickets online, prizes up to £30,000 can be claimed directly through the lottery’s website, while larger winnings require a phone claim.

If the ticket was purchased in-store, prizes up to £500 can be collected in person, but any amount above that must be claimed by submitting a formal claim form.

Importantly, if a prize goes unclaimed after the 180-day deadline, the funds are not lost—they are redirected to support National Lottery-funded community projects across the UK, helping to benefit local initiatives and public services.
