The Santa surf event could not go ahead because of 'insurance restrictions', organisers say.
A charity Santa surf in Cornwall was cancelled at the weekend due to a sewage discharge, organisers have said.
The charity said participants were unable to enter the water for at least 24 hours after each overflow because of insurance reasons. "It's deeply disheartening, and confusing, when we must tell our surfers that the same environment we champion as life-enhancing is, in moments like these, unsafe and harmful."
