There was a fabulous turnout for the Bredon Boat Races 2017, which enjoyed a day of warm sunshine.

Several enthusiastic crews raced bell boats (two canoes strapped together) along a section of the river Avon alongside Old Rectory Meadow in Bredon, near Pershore.

There was also live music from the ReVIVals jazz band, a pig roast, cider and other refreshments for visitors.
