THE Jess Memorial Surf Competition took place at Polzeath recently.

In 2009, Jess sadly passed away and ever since her family have supported children's charity CHICKS through a variety of events.

The surf competition was organised to celebrate Jess' life and at the same time raise funds to make a difference to disadvantaged children.

The big day ended with a party at The Waterfront Restaurant, with prizes awarded, a raffle, food and live music.
