The event included a raffle, auction, bingo, quiz, guess the weight of a cake and the sale of home-made cakes and jams.
Carolyn said: "I would like to thank the very kind people who sponsored us - the Seashore Grill, Asda, Tesco, Waitrose, Co-op (Weycock Cross), McDonalds, Secret Garden of Beauty, Morrisons, Mount Sorrel, Hair by Jenny, Tracey Sullivan, R and M Valeting, and passers-by who knocked and donated.
"Many thanks to all involved. I couldn't have done it without them."
