The cost for the day is £40, which will include beverages.

The proceeds will all go to help provide food and clothing for refugee women and children who are caught in the middle of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Many charity events around Eastbourne and Sussex have been quickly arranged in response to the conflict in the country.

One event this week is taking place at Cameo nightclub, who are hosting a clothing donation to raise money for Ukrainians.
