The group has celebrated its anniversary at St Jude’s Church where 50 of the 73 members turned up to mark the occasion.

Secretary Margaret Bradshaw said: “We’ve been going since 1962 - we formed when the Netherton estate was established that year.

“It was originally formed so we could get together and socialise.

“We are still going strong and I hope we do for a long time in the future.
