Martin Homes presented a cheque for £3,020 to Hurstpierpoint charity Cancervive on Wednesday (April 28) after auctioning items from Little Torch holiday and retreat centre based in the village.
The developer was given planning permission in March to convert the centre into eight luxury flats and two houses.
Items from the building that were auctioned from April 9 -10 included tables, chairs, cabinets, which raised £1,510 before Martin Homes agreed to match with a donation of their own.
