Thousands of pounds has been raised for an appeal to help a dying father spend more time with his family.
More than 30 adults and children held a sponsored walk along the 12 miles between Worthing Pier and the Palace Pier in Brighton for the Neil Cooper Appeal.
The appeal is to pay for chemotherapy treatment, not available on the NHS for Neil Cooper, 33, from Portslade, who is desperate to spend more time with his baby daughter, wife and family. It was organised by Mr Cooper's cousin Ben Cooper who called on the help of his colleagues and friends at the refrigeration company SRW in Shoreham.
He said: "I would like to thank everybody who supported us and took part in the walk. I was really pleased with the turnout and all the children and adults really got into it. It was a long walk but we all managed it.
"We had collection buckets with us and that raised about £550 but once all the sponsorship comes in we are hopeful of more than £3,000."
