On the night, two cheques were presented.
One, for £250, was given to Sage House of Tangmere, a charity which provides facilities and social groups for people with dementia.
The other cheque, with a value of £1,000, was donated to the Pagham Village Hall.
A spokesperson from the event said: “Everybody loved and danced away to the music of The Minkees while raising money.”

Sage House is a dementia charity, working in partnership with voluntary and charitable organisations, the NHS, West Sussex County Council and other statutory organisations to create a unique community hub for dementia.
They offer help to guide families through their personal dementia journeys, as well as day care and a range of activities for those living with dementia and their carers.
Their vision is of a society where dementia is wholly understood and accepted, enabling people living with dementia to be fully supported throughout the whole of their journey, both now and in the future.
