Champagne was flowing freely as a Seaford resident celebrated reaching her 102nd birthday.

Valerie Little of Seaford has celebrated the milestone at Nova House Residential Care Home, which she has called home since 2010.

The celebration was organised by friends and staff who wanted to mark the special occasion.

Gina Hart, the activities co-ordinator at the home, said: “We had a few of her friends around and set a room up with banners and balloons.

“There was lots of champagne as well.”

She added: “She had a wonderful smile on her face. The best part of the day was just seeing her happy.”
