A PRESTWICK woman celebrated a birthday milestone surrounded by her closest friends.

May Stubley, who is a resident at Mears Belhaven Day Care Centre partied with her friends and staff members for her 101st birthday on Tuesday, September 26.

Lynn Skedd, the manager at Mears Belhaven Day Care Centre, said: “The afternoon was absolutely great. It went well and we had music throughout the afternoon, with cake, nibbles and bubbly. 

“May said she was very spoiled and she was very surprised when we brought her to the party and brought out the cake. All of her friends and staff members were there – there was about 20 of us celebrating with her.

"It was an absolute pleasure to spend her birthday with her – it was a fantastic honour.”

Mears Belhaven Day Care Centre provides day care facilities for older people in the area during the week and the centre caters for a wide range of older people requiring a bit more support in their lives.

It’s a chance to enjoy some companionship during the day, and some respite to families looking for a bit more support.
