A party -loving pensioner celebrated her 105th birthday – by holding a rave at her care home.

Hilda Jackson exchanged her Zimmer -Frame for Glowsticks and UV paint after a DJ on Holbrook Hall Care Home in Ripley, Derbantshire, was on the evening of 25 February.

The Sprightly Oap, who says she likes 'dancing and partying', had told carers that she wanted to hold a rave to celebrate her most important milestone.

So the staff helped to organize the bash with fellow residents, who enjoyed a DJ spinning dance classics from a stand in the lounge.

Young-at-Heart Hilda said: 'I am not one for all the big rocking and rolling things, I love a waltz and a Foxtrot. But I like to listen to music with a good tune.

“I enjoyed every minute of my life that I intend to keep doing while I can.”

Hilda, who was born when David Lloyd George was Prime Minister and George V was on the throne, was born in Ripley and is the oldest resident of the nursing home.

She worked in a fabric factory after leaving school and made ammunition in Derby during the Second World War.

The pensioner was once a sharp traveler and loved playing and watching tennis – especially Wimbledon.

Hilda even lays down her long life on her love for the sport.

Hilda insists that she has enjoyed every minute of her life and will continue to do this while she can

“I couldn't get enough tennis, I can hear my mother say that tonight you never went out with tennis, you will be worn out,” she said.

“Just keep going, keep beating.”

Hilda met her husband, Walter, in her early 1920s, but he died in the late 1950s. She said he was “one true love” and she didn't get married again after his death.

After the death of Walter and that of her sister Vera's husband, Hilda and her sister lived together for 63 years until Vera died.

The couple often traveled through the United Kingdom during dance holiday and cruises.

Care Home Manager Rebecca Wass said she thinks Hilda has picked up the idea of ​​a rave of a TV program.

She said: 'She has always been a big fan of dancing and life.

“I'm not sure where the idea came from.

“I don't know if she saw anything in a movie, but she said she wanted a good party.

'She has always been a big fan of dancing and living to the full, so she wanted to do something to represent that.

'A DJ comes in, rave lighting, UV paint and all kinds of things.

'She had a similar request last year, so all residents of the care home had glowsticks, the whole works.

“We had a few last year who were dancing away and even Hilda is trying.”

Rebecca added: 'She is a very cheeky lady. She is constantly on the road, very determined and very aware of what she wanted.

'She has often asked what the secret is to be able to act so young in her old age and she puts it down on playing tennis, which she did in her childhood.

“We ask people everywhere to send in birthday cards – we want to show how loved Hilda is.”
