Jamie's Wish family fun day in Littlehampton
Having battled on through horrendous rain last year, the dedicated volunteers had the opposite on Saturday, when the sun shone all day at Linden Park in Littlehampton.
The fun day is now in its 12th year, raising money for the Littlehampton-based charity, which puts together Wish Boxes for young people living with cancer.

Charity administrator Sue Allen said: "We were delighted with our event on Saturday. It was lovely to see people enjoying themselves in the sunshine and supporting Jamie's Wish.
"We have received amazing feedback from local residents as well as families that travelled from further afield.
"The number of applications we receive for Wish Boxes is ever increasing and the £4,306.11 raised at the fun day will go towards gifts for those young cancer patients."
