Jo Curzon, who works in administration at the home on Norfolk Drive, said: “Beryl had a really nice time and we held a little party for her.

“She used to like playing piano and for her birthday she had a little tinkle on the ivories with our receptionist Claire Samson, who is also a very keen pianist. “She also loves to sing in the choir along with our chaplain Helen Curzon.

Ms Daniels was born in Mansfield Woodhouse on March 17, 1918.
