The world’s oldest person, British woman Ethel Caterham, celebrated her 117th birthday on Friday.

 

Caterham, who lives in a care home in Surrey, about 25 miles outside London, is the first British person ever to live to 117, according to Guinness World Records (GWR).

 

“I’ve had a lovely day celebrating with my family and friends, and I look forward to seeing what next year brings,” Caterham told the UK’s PA Media news agency.
