Members, helpers and carers from around the county gathered at Mackays Hotel in Wick for the Easter afternoon tea dance held by the local branch of Enable, the charity for people with learning disabilities.
The sun shone and the red carpet was put out for everyone who attended to enjoy the musical entertainment from Robin Young (accordion) and Steven Cameron (guitar).
A highlight was the arrival of a group of friendly bikers from The End And More Motorcycle Club (Team MCC) who gifted Easter eggs.
Caithness Enable branch chairman Willie Mackay said: "Our Easter afternoon tea dance is always a popular event on our calendar and this year it lived up to all our expectations.
“We had a great turnout and a scrumptious tea at Mackays Hotel, and there was non-stop dancing with entertainment from Robin and Steven.
“The arrival of Team MCC made the afternoon extra-special, resulting in a great welcome from all the Enable members, carers and helpers.”
The prize for best waltzing couple went to Mark Atkins and Louise Forbes, with Robin Young and Steven Cameron on stage providing the music.
