A MAN cheated his way to more than £10,000 in benefits, a court heard.

Father-of-three Mark Tracey, of Frilsham Street, Sutton Courtenay, pleaded guilty to failing to report a change in circumstances.

Today, Didcot magistrates granted him conditional bail with a residency order and ordered him to co-operate with the probation service. He will be sentenced on March 11.
