Linfield House recently celebrated one of our resident's 102nd birthday.

To mark the big day, Eileen Porter was surrounded by loved ones and showered with lovely birthday messages, cards, flowers and lots of cake to celebrate her wonderful 102 years.

  

Originally born in Enfield, Eileen spent many of her early years working in London as a secretary. From travelling abroad to Europe to her love of playing golf, Eileen has made the most of her years cooking and gardening, but most of all, spending time with loved ones. 

Moving and living at Linfield House for the last two years, Eileen was joined at the home with her good friends Bill and Betty who came to visit her that day. Staff and other residents helped decorate the home with cards and flowers to mark the big day. 

Jolanta Harbuz, Care Home Manager at Linfield House, said: “It was truly wonderful to see Eileen turn 102 years young. Eileen thoroughly enjoyed the day, especially her birthday cake that reminded her of when you used to play golf. 

She has been an incredible addition to our Linfield family and it was a joy to be able to make her day a special one to remember.”
