A lucky resident somewhere in the borough of Dacorum is celebrating after claiming an outstanding £1m National Lottery prize.
The New Year’s Day EuroMillions Millionaire Raffle draw created 25 millionaires in one night however a ticketholder in Dacorum had failed to come forward.
After a hunt for the winner following a plea from Camelot, the operator of the National Lottery, the lucky winner has now claimed the life-changing sum.
A National Lottery spokesperson said: "We’re delighted that the winner of this amazing prize has now come forward and we hope they will enjoy their win - what a great way to start 2013.
"It would have been awful if the ticket-holder had missed out on this substantial and life-changing amount of money."
