Last year, two similar sales at Steyning, coupled with donations from the Chanctonbury Lions, resulted in more than 2,000 being given to Chestnut Tree House.

The first event, in June, 2007, was the first time the Chanctonbury Lions had held a book sale in Steyning. It raised around 900, with the Lions club matching the figure and rounding it up to 2,000.

Building on the event's success, the Lions held a second charity sale, in September, raising 747.
