Charlie Chesman, community fundraiser at Turning Tides, said: “It was lovely to see so many of our supporters come together to share this experience and want to gain more of an insight into how it feels for some of our clients.
“A massive thank you to all of those who took part or helped during the event. Also thanks to Broadwater CE Primary School for allowing us to use their school as the venue again.”
