Family fun day on the seafront to raise funds for Rockinghorse
A Brighton charity is holding a Family Fun Day on the seafront to help raise money for sick children. Activities include obstacle courses, school sports day games, a treasure hunt, bouncy castle, tombola, face-painting, arts and crafts stalls and more.

The fun day is being held on Hove Lawns from 10am until 4pm on Saturday 28 July. The event has been organised by Rockinghorse, which is best known for its work with the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital and the Trevor Mann Baby Unit.
