Hundreds of Jewish Care residents have rung in the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee with “delicious” cream teas.

Festivities have already begun with a string of parties across the charity to pay homage to Britain’s longest reigning monarch as the nation marks 70 years since her coronation.

Adele Hamilton, a member of Jewish Care’s Holocaust Survivors’ Centre, said: “The music and the atmosphere was wonderful, the scones were especially delicious.”

Her Majesty is also set to receive a card from members with personalised messages and photos to wish her a happy birthday.

Volunteers across the organisation will be enjoying cream teas as a thanks for their dedication.

Jewish Care’s Chief Executive, Daniel Carmel-Brown, said: “We wish Her Majesty the Queen a very hearty Mazel Tov on this very special occasion from all of us at Jewish Care.

“We have warmly welcomed members of the Royal Family at our resources and events over the years and often share our residents’ joy on receiving Her Majesty’s centenarian birthday cards, which often take pride of place in any room.

“We are pleased to be able to celebrate the Jubilee with our residents, tenants, community centre members and volunteers together as a community at Jewish Care.”

The Royal Family have long supported the Jewish charity.

In 1938, Queen Mary opened what has since become Jewish Care’s Brenner Stepney Jewish Community Centre. In 2016, the Duchess of Cambridge visited Jewish Care’s Holocaust Survivors’ Centre and met Holocaust survivors, staff, and volunteers.
