A couple have celebrated 50 years of dancing together at an event in Lichfield.

David and Kathryn Wright marked the occasion as they called a personal selection of dances at Lichfield Folk Dance Club.

A spokesperson said:

> “Members had an enjoyable evening, participating in an interesting and varied programme of dances, including older pieces and those written more recently.  
>  
> “The newer dances included Freeford Gardens, an elegant dance written by the Wrights themselves, and The Wrights of Lichfield, written by American caller and dance writer Gary Roodman.  
>  
> “Between the dances, David and Kathryn told entertaining stories about the dances they had chosen, with each having a personal connection, such as Reading Reel celebrating the place where the couple first met, to C and J’s Jig, written for their daughters.  
>  
> “An excellent evening was had by all.”
