Without the NBGA Bingo Caller of the Year competition to remind me of the time of the year, I'd forgotten it was time for that other now popular annual event, Breakthrough for free bingo. Once again, clubs up and down the country will be turning pink for Bingo for Breakthrough Week - which this year will run from the 19th to the 25th October. The week will see a number of pink related fund raising events and awareness rising for the breast cancer charity.
To kick off this year's event, actress Michelle Collins donned a dress made entirely of UK bingo tickets. The Northern Echo has a picture of the fetching dress, as well as a bit more info. The ex-East Enders star will be the face of the campaign this year, and encouraging players to get out and play the week the event is on. Last year the week raised a staggering £2.75 million pounds for the charity. There are hopes that this year they can break the £3 million barrier. Good luck to all involved in the event, and if you have any great news and stories about your participation in the event, feel free to contact us and I'll feature it here or on the forum.

Online bingo is an extremely competitive business and many online bingo sites will offer a lot to get and keep your business. Many will offer sign-up bonuses to new customers, adding 10 to 50% of their initial deposit to their bankroll.
You don't have to travel long distances. The bingo hall, along with all your friends, is in your own home. This is especially convenient for those of us who cannot leave the house due to illness, etc.. when you play online bingo.
