Older women shimmied for Wimbledon shoppers to mark the launch of Merton’s annual Celebrating Age Festival.
An hour of entertainment at Centre Court shopping centre on June 4 included tap, line and belly dancing - as well as Tamil and Filipino folk dancing and singing from a Caribbean choir.
Festival co-ordinator Sue Tickner said: “These ladies, with a few brave gentlemen, demonstrated that you can have fun whatever age you are.”
September’s four week festival will offer a range of activities for over 50s in the borough. The festival booking line, 020 8545 4712, will open on July 19.
