Time nearly up for Lotto winners
Lottery balls
The wining tickets were bought at Easter
Time is running out for two Yorkshire Lotto winners to claim prizes totalling more than £300,000.

One ticket was purchased in York and has the winning numbers 25,30,34,39,40,47 and bonus ball 16.

The other ticket has as its winning numbers 3,21,31,42,47,48 with 34 as the bonus. It was bought in East Yorkshire.

Both winning tickets matched five numbers plus the bonus and were for draws in April. But the 180 days to claim prizes are nearly up.

Back of sofa

A spokesman for Lotto company Camelot said: "The draws took place over the Easter holiday period so the tickets may have been put to one side and forgotten about.

"We urge everyone to check any old tickets again, to look in wallets, coat pockets, down the back of the sofa or even in the car, as the tickets may have been bought when they were travelling somewhere."

The York ticket is worth £205,569 and has to be claimed by 7 October.

The one bought in East Yorkshire will bring a prize of £100,583 if it is claimed by 14 October.

Anyone who thinks they are winners should ring 0845 910 0000.
