Eastbourne Mayor’s Charity Seafront Walk postponed
The Eastbourne Mayor’s Charity Seafront Walk, which was planned for this weekend, has been postponed.
Residents had been told that the walk would trace a scenic route from Fisherman’s Green to Holywell and back again – a total of 4.6 miles.
The event was set to start at 1pm.
A spokesperson from Eastbourne Borough Council said: “Following the sad news of the Queen's death on Thursday, this event is being postponed until after her funeral.
"A new date to follow in due course.”
All money raised from the event will be split between the mayor’s chosen charities – Eastbourne Foodbank and Eastbourne Mencap.
Eastbourne Mencap supports local people with learning disabilities while Eastbourne Foodbank provides food and other essential items to residents.
