Football legend and former England star Kevin Keegan attends Sussex charity event

Keegan - who played 63 games for England scoring 21 goals before retiring in 1982 - gave the after- lunch speech at The Grand Hotel in Brighton.

A fantastic £26,000 was raised at the event, with Sussex charity Chailey Heritage Foundation, benefiting from the incredible generosity of the guests. Chailey Heritage Foundation is a charity providing education, care and transition services to children and young adults with complex physical disabilities. Their mission is to give disabled children and young adults every opportunity to pursue their fullest potential.

The charity - which runs a school, children’s home and home for young adults at its base in North Chailey - will use the funds to support its specialist services which include therapeutic riding, hydrotherapy and its on-site therapeutic care farm.
