Champagne flutes clinked as a toast to Ivy Howlett, who celebrated her 100th birthday last week.

Ivy was born on January 14, 1914, and lived in Burton on Trent. She moved down to Camelford 13 years ago, to live with her son Keith and daughter-in-law.

Ivy worked hard all her life and has travelled many miles on the local Age Concern mini-bus, where she has made many friends and continues to so almost every week. She is a great fan of crossword puzzles and spends many hours completing them.
