The party was thrown at the Central Day Centre on Sullivan Way, Scholes, and the celebrations included a singer, prosecco and cake.

Alison Jackson, senior support worker at the centre, said: “Anne has only been coming here for a few weeks but she has already made her mark because she is a great character and a very popular.
"We wish her many more happy birthdays.”
