They launched their bid this week with a marathon of fund raising events, starting on Monday 22 with a gruelling run.

They followed this up, on Tuesday, with a chilli eating competition at Combe Haven Holiday Park.

On Wednesday they held a day-long cake sale and also organised a charity pyjama and onesie walk along Eastbourne seafront.
