From white van man to spray-can: Bobby gives van a makeover
The once-blank van belonging to the Ufosa Foundation, which has a shop in Western Road as well as in Hastings and Battle, will now carry Ufosa's logo around Rother and Hastings.
Ufosa founder and president Robert Vallier thanked 22-year-old Bobby Hopkins-Barry, area manager for the charity, for his "talented and artistic" handiwork.

Robert, who began You Fund Our Special Areas (Ufosa) two years ago, to concentrate on helping under-privileged or ill South African children as well as those in the UK, said: "We kept thinking about losing free advertising. It's all about making the public aware of what we are doing. And this is a fun, contemporary style."
