WINDSURFERS and sailors of all ages and abilities gathered at Siblyback Lake on Cornwall's Bodmin Moor above Liskeard to take part in a fund-raising challenge to collect money for Cancer Research.

'Watersports for Cancer Research' was part of a larger event across the UK to get as many windsurfers, sailors, kite-surfers, surfers and stand-up paddle-boarders on the water as possible.

Braving almost wintry conditions, Siblyback's junior club members all entered the successful event and were even joined by some of their parents.

In all, 30 windsurfers and dinghy sailors took to the water, and winds of up to 40-mph made for some really spectacular windsurfing and sailing.
