A BARNSLEY woman is celebrating after winning more than £10,000 playing online bingo.

Kim Brookes, of Old Town, has been a member of Mecca in Rotherham for 20 years but only started playing the online version a few months ago.

Having already paid off some bills, she is putting the rest of her winnings towards a new mobility scooter and a seaside holiday in Mablethorpe.

“I was gobsmacked when I realised I’d won - I couldn’t believe it at first,” Kim, 50, said. “I had to call Mecca to make sure I wasn’t dreaming.

“My mobility scooter stopped working last week so this money has come at the perfect time.”
