Dorothy Walsh has lived at Anchor’s Halcyon Court care home off Cliff Road for six years.
She marked the landmark occasion with a party on Monday 26 May, with her family and the Lord Mayor of Leeds, Cllr Dan Cohen, attending. Fellow residents at Anchor’s Halcyon Court care home also joined the celebrations.
The day included a visit from Wise Owls who brought along five of their beautiful birds of prey, with Dorothy getting up close and personal with one owl. Dorothy also received a telegram from the King, wishing her a happy birthday.
As a young woman, Dorothy worked in a greengrocer’s shop, but she has spent most of her life dedicated to raising her family – including three children and nine grandchildren.
Lynda Taylor, Receptionist at Anchor’s Halcyon Court care home, said: “Dorothy’s family is incredibly important to her. It is a pleasure to have her with us at Halcyon Court as she is loved by everyone.”
