A WOMAN who celebrated her 102nd birthday yesterday proudly told family and friends “I’ve still got it!”
Jean Walker, who now lives at Elizabether House, in Benfleet Road, Hadleigh, was joined by her loved ones to mark the special day yesterday afternoon.
The staff at the care home got into the spirit of things and made sure the conservatory was decorated and the kitchen baked a cake for everyone to enjoy.
Care team manager Ben Shaw said: “It was a really nice afternoon.
“Jean seemed to really enjoy herself and whenever anyone mentioned her being 102, she would tell everyone ‘I’ve still got it!’
“It was a special day.”
