Residents and staff at the Ferrars Hall Care Home, in Huntingdon, all joined in the celebrations when beloved resident Emily Ramsey turned 100 on May 16.
Emily enjoyed a wonderful party at the care home and was delighted to see her birthday cake, which was created by the home's chef manager and his team. Emily's family gathered in the garden to wish her a 'happy birthday' and thanks to a relaxation in social distancing rules, they were able to take part in the celebrations.
