A Chester woman has won £5,000 to spend at Mococo jewellery store during the 10th birthday celebrations of the North West retailer.

Sandra Lewis, 51, beat over 21,000 people who entered the special birthday competition, after being automatically entered into the competition after buying Thomas Sabo charms for the matching bracelets that she, her mother, Pat, and sister, Dawn, wear daily in memory of their husband and father, Fred Blamey, who passed away in 2014. Other runners up each received a £1,000 prize to spend in store.

Sandra said: ‘To be announced as the overall winner was an incredible feeling. We have been coming to Mococo to add to our jewellery collection since my Dad passed away. Every anniversary, birthday or special occasion in his memory, we like to buy a charm for our bracelets to signify that moment and remember him by. It is the most special and important thing that I own.’
