A mystery ticket holder has finally come forward to claim a National Lottery prize worth more than £113,000.

The lucky punter bought their ticket for the main Lotto draw, held on August 21 this year, somewhere around Canterbury, Whitstable and Herne Bay.

The winner has chosen to remain anonymous.

Jenny Dowden, from National Lottery operator Camelot, said: “We’re delighted that the winner of this amazing prize has now come forward and we hope that they will enjoy their win.

“It would have been awful if the ticket holder had missed out on this substantial and life enhancing amount of money.

“We would remind all National Lottery players to check their tickets every time they play.”
