Two of Albion's young guns helped celebrate the tenth anniversary of Eastbourne's Help the Aged shop.
Chris McPhee and John Piercy presented long-service awards to staff on Tuesday at the shop in Albert Parade.
Among those honoured were Barbara Mayes, Winifred Gearing and William Aird-Mash, who between them have worked 9,360 voluntary hours for the charity.
Hastings-born centre forward McPhee and Eastbourne-based midfielder Piercy handed them framed certificates and brandy glasses.
Balloons and a birthday cake were also laid on to celebrate the shop's decade of volunteering in Eastbourne.
Manager Jonathan Bishop said: "We wanted to make this day really special to thank the staff and volunteers for all their hard work.
"It's also to thank the customers for their continued support we have enjoyed during the past ten years."
