Big thank you to our readers as Nellie receives 103 birthday cards in time for the weekend
You've done, thank you, you lovely lot! Big hearted Shropshire folk - including Star readers - have sent scores of birthday cards to a care home in time for a resident's 103rd birthday at the weekend.
Posties in Market Drayton have seen their red vans creaking under the load of at least 105 cards to Nellie Orme at the Tunstall Hall Care Centre, in Market Drayton, following an appeal.
They've even received a message from the other side of the world from a UK expat now living in Tasmania who saw the appeal for 103 cards to be sent on the BBC.
"It’s all thanks to the wonderful coverage you and BBC Midlands have provided for her," said a spokesperson for the care home company St Philips Care.
