“I was overwhelmed by the response. We ran out of food at one stage but that was no problem – we just went out and bought more.
“Every penny donated from ticket sales, plus the raffle, will go to a number of local charities which I cherish supporting.”
Those attending the event included representatives from the Polegate-based Children with Cancer Fund and Macmillan Cancer Support volunteers.
