Two charity volunteers have been invited to Buckingham Palace in recognition of their loyalty and hard work.

Enid Busby and Jean Young have both attended garden parties with the Queen because of their work with Oxfordshire Association for the Blind (OAB).

Mrs Busby, a member of the Radcliffe Infirmary League of Friends, first began volunteering 13 years ago and now runs Chipping Norton Visually Impaired People (VIP) group.

Mrs Young runs Faringdon VIP group and is also a member of the Women's Royal Voluntary Service.
