More than 100 people took part in a charity dragon boat tournament.

The event was held at Brighton Marina in aid of the Salvation Army Citadel being built in Park Crescent, Brighton.

Sixteen teams of paddlers from the city competed in the Chinese-style boats over a 250-metre course.

Each team paid £200 to enter and had to raise money through sponsorship. Organisers hope to collect at least £10,000.

Local firm The Organisation Event Support And Management ran the boat races. It regularly sets up similar events across the country.

Director Glenn Morgan said: "We had 16 teams, each with 18 members taking part, plus many of them brought supporters along with them as well."
