World Conker Championships 2022 take place in Northamptonshire
A woman who won her category in the 51st World Conker Championships said she had waited more than 30 years for victory.
The school nurse, who lives a few miles from Southwick, said: "It took me 31 years of playing but eventually I won this year and I am totally thrilled." The event, which returned last year after the Covid pandemic, has been running since 1965 and has raised £420,000 for charity since its inception.
