Meet probably the world’s oldest twin sisters who have celebrated their 100th birthdays thus reaching a combined age of 200 years!
Irene Crump and Phyllis Jones were born 25 minutes apart on November 20, 1916, since then they were almost inseparable.
The girls went to the same schools, had the same first job at a porcelain company and even now they live under one roof in Stourport, Worcestershire, UK.
The sisters marked their special day in the bosom of the family and friends and cresited their longevity to “hard work and good food”.
The kind hearted twins didn’t ask for presents, instead they request their loved ones to donate to the local air ambulance.

Irene Crump and Phyllis Jones aged 4 with their older sister Dorothy, who lived into her 90s but died a few years ago
Irene, the younger of the siblings, said: “We didn’t want presents, we just wanted donations. We haven’t got all the money in yet but we think we’ve done pretty well, it’s a cause close to our heart. We often celebrate our special birthdays together, and we had a lovely day.
We celebrated our 90th together, and last year we celebrated our 99th birthday too. Hard work and good food is our secret, that’s all I can put it down to.
We’ve always been close and we live together now, Phyllis moved in with me five years ago. I can’t walk very far now but Phyllis walks around the block every day.”
Both Irene and Phyllis got married. Irene’s husband Samuel died in 1999 and lived well into his 90s, while Phyllis’ spouse, Ray Jones, died aged 91 ten years ago.
Irene has no children, nevertheless, Phyllis’ son, Carl Jones, cares about both of them.

Carl, 58, said: “My wife Patricia and I are here every day and we phone them at least once. They live independently and they’re doing great, and if there’s an emergency they’ll ring me. They get on well but they do have their moments – but that’s going to happen whether they’re 100 or 20!
Mum and Auntie Rene, as most people call her, have always lived a few miles apart, and now they live together. They’re totally different though – Auntie Rene has always been very methodical and careful, but Mum always races around doing things.”
