Artists from across the UK will be performing for a unique charity fund-raiser.

It will be the first time Mayor of Eastbourne Olive Woodall has hosted the Startime event at the Winter Garden in Compton Street, Eastbourne.

Singers and dancers will star on Thursday, March 27, from 8pm.

Norman Collier will headline the evening featuring Don Smoothey, The Plummers, Godfrey James, Billy Moore, Lavinia, the Deeprose Dancers and the Stagecoach Singers.

A raffle will be drawn during the interval by Dec Cluskey of The Bachelors.

The show has been devised by Roy Jubb and produced by Tony Armstrong Barns.

Proceeds will go to the mayor's charities, Eastbourne Citizens' Advice Bureau and Open Door.

Tickets are available from the mayor's office at the town hall in Grove Road or by calling 01323 415020.
