Ivy Bean is a great-grandmother with a difference. At 102 years old she has joined the social networking revolution and become the oldest person on Facebook.
The former mill worker, who was born in Bradford in 1905, showed an interest in the website, after hearing care workers at her home talk about the phenomenon.
Although Mrs Bean currently only has nine Facebook friends, she said she 'loves being online' and is hoping for many more.
Her carers have set up a group called 'Oldest person on Facebook' and regularly post news, photos and videos about their most famous resident.
The most recent video shows the sprightly centenarian competing in Bradford's Over-75 Olympics.
