WHEN Lisa Richardson discovered she had won a holiday for her family she could not have been more surprised.

For it was her little girl Alice, six, who had entered her for a Mum in a Million Competition, which had been run with Pontins in the Cambs Times and Wisbech Standard.

Alice, who attends Glebelands Primary School had filled in a competition entry on behalf of her mum and was delighted when she discovered she had won a five day holiday at Pontins Prestatyn Sand Holiday Centre in Wales.

Lisa and her partner Mark, along with Alice and son Joseph took part in the holiday earlier this month.

Mum Lisa, from Chatteris, said: "It was absolutely wonderful, we had a fantastic time, I could not believe it when I found out I had won because I was so surprised. I did not even know Alice had entered it.
