Pier to Pier walk exceeds all expectations
The fundraiser smashed the £2,000 target set to provide a Sensory Chair for Jack, who has stage 4 neuroblastoma – a malignant tumour in his abdomen which has spread to his bone marrow.
The 22 walkers set off on the 17-mile trip from Hastings Pier at 9.30am and arrived at Easbourne Pier at 4pm, where a tired but delighted Sam Burt, who organised the event, thanked all the walkers and sponsors.

Julie Austen provided the support vehicle carrying energy-boosting snacks and drinks along the way.
Julie will be having her head shaved at the Ravenside Tesco store on November 18 at 2pm to raise further funds for Jack.
