Members of Castlethorpe WI celebrated their Golden Jubilee on Saturday afternoon with a tea party in the village hall.
A specially iced cake commerated the fifty years the branch has been going strong and the only two surviving founder members were guests of honour.
Mrs. Beccy Whiting, who is in her eighties, was the first president and Mrs. Emmie Stringer was a committee member.
The Jubilee cake was cut by this year's president Mrs. Peg Crabbe and the branch's ceremonial tablecloth was on display.
The cloth is embroidered with the signatures of members and bears the Bucks WI crest.
