Ashdown Radio's Ryan Millns sent over 1500 people into a very colourful run for St Wilfrid's Hospice!

On Saturday 7th June, the annual Rainbow Run for St Wilfrid's Hospice took place at Nash Street Farm, Chiddingly.

Despite the threat of heavy rain and winds, the sun came out for the 1,500 participants who ran, walked and danced through the colours of the rainbow.

So far the event has raised over £100,000 (and counting) for hospice care in East Sussex.

The hospice would like to say a big thank you to the wonderful volunteers, without whom the event simply couldn't happen.
