By Matthew Hancock-Bruce 18th Feb 2026
A Macclesfield church is planning a big surprise to celebrate a congregant's centenary birthday.
Hilda Partington turns 100 years old in March.
To mark the occasion, the team at St Paul's Church is looking to collect 100 birthday cards.
A spokesperson for the Glegg Street church said: "One of our lovely congregation is turning 100 next month!
"As you can imagine, this is such an incredible achievement, and we are aiming to surprise Hilda with 100 cards for her 100th birthday!
"If you are able to join the celebrations, cards can be sent to the parish office and we would be so incredibly grateful!"
Hilda has been attending St Paul's for nearly 100 years.
She was baptised there in 1926, confirmed there in 1940 and married there in 1949.
The church will celebrate her birthday at their Mothering Sunday Service on March 15 at 10.30am.
Birthday cards should be sent to St Paul's Parish Office, Glegg Street, Macclesfield, SK11 7AJ by Friday, March 13.
