A British woman who is the world's oldest living person has celebrated her 116th birthday in a care home in Surrey. Ethel Caterham, who lives in the home in Lightwater, became the oldest person alive in April after the death of Brazilian nun Sister Inah Canabarro aged 116. She was born on August 21, 1909, making her the last surviving subject of Edward VII. King Charles, Edward's great-great-grandson, sent Mrs Caterham a card to celebrate her 115th birthday last year. #oldestperson #ethelcaterham #ageing #oldpeople
