Sussex String certainly hit the right note, after a successful autumn concert by the group raised nearly £300 for local charity East Sussex Hearing.

Over fifty people were entertained at the concert in Willingdon, to magical musical interludes by amongst others Mozart and Handel.

Musical director Simon Smith said” Every year our programme of concerts raises money for worthy local charities and causes.

"As a group of musicians, it seemed logical that we support a charity that does so much to help the county’s people that live with hearing disability and face the challenge of living in a world where listening to beautiful music can be such a struggle.”
