A birthday card, handmade by late pop-star Amy Winehouse for her mother Janis, has been sold for £200.

The green card with a cartoon image of Mrs Winehouse, decorated by a 12-year-old Amy, was auctioned on eBay to raise money for the Multiple Sclerosis Society.

Mrs Winehouse, from East Barnet, who suffers from multiple sclerosis - a disease affecting nerves in the brain and spinal cord - sold the card to mark the charity’s 60th birthday.

“Amy drew this picture of me when she was just 12 in French class,” she told Times Series news.
