Tree of Light event gives a much-needed cash boost to five Eastbourne charities
The Salvation Army’s Rebourne Corner Day Centre, The Matthew 25 Mission, Linking Lives, the Citizens Advice Bureau and East Sussex Cruse all benefitted from the £7,000 raised.
Rotarians from the four Rotary Clubs in Eastbourne were on hand at Brewers to hand over cheques to each charity.
