LOCAL artist Angelique Medland worked with Friends of Bude Sea Pool on Friday, August 23 to create giant sand sculptures next to Bude Sea Pool, at Summerleaze Beach, to raise money for the charity.

Angelique said: "It would be tragic if the pool was lost. It's a big part of Bude's identity, my husband's fondest memories as a child are of his Gran taking him down for a swim.

"I designed the sculpture so everyone could be part of it on the day, going with my belief that art is for everyone. People had the option of having their own circle to create in, or join in with the large design."
