Watch: 102-year-old celebrates birthday on ice rink in Dorset
A grandmother celebrated her 102nd birthday by ice skating for the first time since she was a girl.
Eileen Pickering took to the rink in Bournemouth after staff at her care home arranged the experience.
She began skating after ice hockey matches at her local rink in London when she was a young girl but struggled to find a venue for her passion when her family moved to Dorset.
The centurion said skating again felt like a “dream come true”.
