I would like to congratulate all those who took part in Sunday's successful sponsored walk in aid of the equality charity Stonewall.

The 10km walk was supported by 350 people who walked from the Royal Pavilion, along the seafront to Hove, up to Hove Town Hall and back all the way along to Sussex Square, finishing back on the Kemp Town seafront. The money raised will help Stonewall's vital work to eradicate homophobic hate crime, tackle anti-gay bullying in schools and all forms of prejudice.

Between us, I am proud to say, the Liberal Democrat team raised £1,137.95 (including reclaimable tax).

We would like to thank all those who sponsored us including Legends bar and Revenge nightclub. It was an excellent community event with an important message behind it.
