Battling care homeresident, 107, dies

One of Britain's oldest women, who fought to save her council-run care home from closure, has died, her family said.

Louisa Watts, 107, made headlines when she was among a group of elderly residents who took their fight for Underhill House in Wolverhampton, as far as the Court of Appeal.

Wolverhampton City Council succesfully argued that the home did not meet modern standards, and the women were moved out in January.
