A series of events is planned to raise funds for a town's traditional bonfire night celebrations.

Littlehampton Bonfire Society is holding two events during the coming weeks to fund the town's celebrations on October 25.

They are holding the society's annual May Fair in St James's Church Hall, East Ham Road, Littlehampton, on Saturday at 2pm.

Home-made cakes, books, bric-a-brac and plants will be on offer and there will be a tombola and raffle. Entrance is free.

A line dance disco is being held at the United Services Club in Maltravers Road, Littlehampton, on June 21. It will start at 7.30pm and tickets cost £5 each.

Music will be provided by The Dumb Blonde and there will be a licensed bar and raffle.

Bonfire society members aim to fully cover the cost of the celebrations by fund-raising during the year so street collections on the night go entirely to good causes.

Beneficiaries of last year's event, which raised £6,904, included the Southdowns Family Centre, which was able to buy a computer and multi-sensory room equipment, and the Arun Dolphins Swimming Club for the Disabled, which bought a hoist chair.
