WOMEN'S Institute members are well know for sharing recipes and creating delicious treats but this year they are more determined than ever to spread their message internationally.
The Derbyshire Federation created a stir with its tent full of impressive food and crafts ranging from cakes and buns to jam and pickles.
It is celebrating its 90th year by raising almost £3,000 for a water project in the Kirinda area of Uganda.
Groups are raising cash in a number of ways to upgrade seven springs, create two bore holes and train 12 people in how to keep water clean.
The project follows hot on the heels of funding a pickle making project in India and the aim of both is to give useful skills that can be passed on and on.
Federation member Susan Watkins said: "The WI is a wonderful organisation and it is all about education. It is in our genetic make-up to carry on learning so people can join their local WI because we have a strong educational theme. It is all about learning."
