A competition to decorate a Jersey parish with creative displays to mark the 80th anniversary of Liberation Day has started.

The contest to decorate St John with patriotic displays of bunting, flags, flowers and lights runs until 10 May.

Constable Andy Jehan had said organisers wanted to see the parish "bursting with colour and community pride this Liberation Day".

Residents can email a photo of their display to [email protected], with the winner to receive a £50 voucher.
