This year’s Argus Appeal Santa Bus raised more than £21,000 for good causes across Sussex.
The bus visited more than 150 streets in December with you generously handing over thousands of pounds.
Lloyds TSB also pledged £10,000 towards the annual collection.
The £21,631.72 total is a record for the long-running appeal.
Argus editor Michael Beard met Esme Slater, Jo Tugwell and Andrew Farmiloe from Lloyds TSB and Caroline Lower from the Martlets hospice to collect the cheque.
Thank you all our readers for your generosity.
