A Kilwinning community stalwart has celebrated her 100th birthday.
Centenarian Dorothy Lynam marked the milestone with her nearest and dearest at Woodwynd Community Centre on Saturday.
Formerly a correspondent for the Irvine Herald, Dorothy has worn many hats throughout her lifetime.
She is also a Kilwinning historian, Segdoune Carnival committee member and has also crowned the Segdoune Queen.
And Dorothy is known for her charitable work raising funds for Parkinsons.
Dorothy also spent a large part of her time volunteering at the iconic Kilwinning Abbey.
Among the esteemed guests at the birthday bash were deputy Lord Lieutenant Erica Lockhart, North Ayrshire provost Ian Clarkson, Kilwinning councillors Donald Reid and Scott Davidson along with former MP for Central Ayrshire Brian Donohoe and Dorothy's son, Michael Lynam.
Provost Ian Clarkson said: “I was delighted to attend Dorothy’s 100th birthday.
“Having spent so much of the past year apart, it is wonderful to see families start to come together again and it was obvious how happy Dorothy’s family and friends were to unite for the big day.
“On behalf of the Depute Lieutenant of Ayrshire and Arran Erica Lockett, I would like to wish Dorothy the very best of health and thank her for allowing us to be part of the wonderful celebrations.”
Councillor Donald Reid also wished Dorothy a happy birthday on Twitter.
His post read: "Kilwinning historian, Segdoune Carnival committee member and crowner, local contributor.
"For many years amongst many roles held by this lady.
"Happy 100th Birthday to Dorothy Lynam."
