Hunt is on for Wokingham’s 90-year-olds to celebrate Queen’s big birthday

THE search is on for Wokingham town’s 90-year-olds as the country gets ready to salute The Queen’s milestone birthday.

The town council is planning an afternoon tea party to honour its residents who have reached that grand old age. The event is the brainchild of Bob Wyatt, the council’s longest-serving councillor.

The tea will be served at the WADE day centre in Reading Road on Saturday, June 25.
It is hoped guests will be able to enjoy photographs and film from the big Wokingham street party earlier in the month, as well as a cuppa and cake.

Organisers will be contacting care homes and working with churches and groups to make sure all nonagenarians are invited.

If you know someone in the Wokingham Town boundaries who has turned, or will turn 90 this year, contact the council’s civic officer Nikki Payler by emailing [email protected] or call 0118 978 3185.
