CAMPAIGNERS are celebrating the success of a 24-hour fundraising event that has netted more than £9,000 for the Hythe Ferry.
Ashleigh Mutimear and her supporters walked up and down the 700-yard Hythe Pier to raise vital cash for the ferry, which has been hit by the Covid crisis.
The event was accompanied by a family fun day at the nearby Lord Nelson pub, followed by an open day on the pier itself.
Visitors to the jetty were joined by children's author Simon Chadwick, of Dibden Purlieu, who signed copies of his new book, A Seal Swam In From The Sea, which has been published in aid of the Save the Ferry campaign.
