A five-a-side football tournament between Brighton businesses is expected to raise hundreds of pounds for a blind charity.

About 16 teams will compete in the knockabout which aims to raise at least £800 for Sussex Lantern in The Linkway, Brighton.

Alistair Digby, from Nido Marketing, and James Tarleton, from accountants Ashdown Hurrey, are organising the event.

They have recruited Jo Clayton, from Women in Business, and some of her pals to dress up as cheerleaders on the night.

If you would like to enter a team, contact Mr Tarleton on 01273 739592.

The tournament is at Portslade Sports Centre in Chalky Road, Portslade, on Thursday, October 7, at 6pm.
