Pleas help, I have a ipad3 and for ages I've been getting a message about backing up my iCloud and backing up my storage but its says it can't because not enough storage is available and just now I've got a message that its almost full!

I'm panicked that all my photos and videos will be gone, I don't care about apps, the only thing on my iCloud is the ipad nothing else, I don't know how get enough storage, to get more storage ill have to pay £14.

Is there a better way to get more space and back up?

I'm really worried will all my pictures get automatically deleted if I don't back up soon?

They won't get automatically deleted. Always a good idea to backup to your computer as well.

You get a free 5GB iCloud allowance, but it sounds likely that your photos and videos are over 5GB which is why it's telling you there's no more room.
If you want more iCloud storage then you are going to have to pay for it I'm afraid.
The only other free option is to back up to a computer via iTunes instead , or you could transfer over your photos and videos to free up storage which is easy enough to do, just connect iPad to a computer and copy the DCIM folder to the computer and then delete contents off the iPad.
