Hide AdBelinda makes and decorates cakes for a living and thinks she will find a property to lease for the business with her prize money.
She said: “I nearly fell over when I saw the cheque.
“Everyone has been telling me to find a shop to sell my cakes in so it seems like now is the perfect time to do it. I’ve never been abroad either, so I’ll probably treat my two sons and daughter to a holiday in Cyprus.”
Belinda’s cake business is called Belinda Jane’s Bakes and she currently runs it from Facebook.
A third of the cash raised by the lottery goes to charity.
