Danny Dwyer and Bear Patrol organised a Hibernation Luncheon at the Holiday Inn on Brighton Seafront on Sunday, October 13.
More than 160 people attended the three course luncheon and were joined by the Deputy Mayor of Brighton and Hove, Cllr Bill Randall and his wife.
The event raised just short of £6,000 for the Sussex Beacon who will use the money to decorate one of the corridors in their in-patient unit on the first floor.
The event was hosted by Mysterry with entertainment provided by vocalists Adam Betteridge, Krissie du Cann, Jennie Castelle, Pool La May and David Raven aka Maisie Trollette who was accompanied on keyboards by Josh Mills.
The auctioneer for the evening was Mark Stacey, the presenter of BBC’s Flog It programme who successfully managed to empty peoples pockets of their cash.
