The flights operate between Alderney and Brighton

The new route between Shoreham and the Bailiwick's most northern isle is enabling more people to attend the annual event.

One group of artists from Brighton exhibiting this week hope now to make regular visits to the island.

Artist Claire Evans says Alderney is fast becoming a haven for artists and people from Brighton.

'Incredibly easy'

She has organised an Open House Exhibition in an Alderney home in Auderville.

She said: "It has made it incredibly easy to get here we are very grateful they have opened up this link

"It will hopefully mean all of us from Brighton will be here more regularly."

Alderney Week continues until 8 August.
