A group of Worcestershire women who are recovering from cancer are to take to the water during the Queen's Diamond Jubilee regatta on the Thames.

The recovering cancer sufferers, known as Busters, took part in a recruitment drive, aimed at getting more people involved in the club.

The Buster boat is part of the Worcester Dragons group, who meet every week on the river Severn, and is set to sail in the Queen’s celebrations.

A dragon boat is a human-powered watercraft originating from Southern China – and is made from teak.
