Other agencies such as Selsey Coastguard, St John Ambulance, Sussex Search and Rescue and The Lifecentre will join the ranks on the day, and activities will include face painting, bouncy castles and an ice cream van.

Competitions will run throughout the day including a grand raffle, with all money raised on the day being donated to charities Chestnut Tree House and the Tangmere dementia support hub.

Dementia Support, based in Tangmere, are building a first-of-its kind dementia-friendly hub for people with dementia, their families, friends and carers.
