“We have raised around £10,000 for our chosen charities, Chestnut Tree House children’s hospice and LifeCentre, with more pledges and donations to be counted.”

Team Sharkitects from ECE Architecture in West Worthing won the grand final and Team E Sea E from the same company won the demolition derby after their solidly-built raft avoided destruction in the ‘anything goes’ race.

The wooden spoon went to a Worthing-based team from Sussex Police, which was recognised for all-round team spirit, creative raft accessorising and enthusiasm throughout the tournament, as well as an outstanding fundraising effort.
