Then, earlier this month, the group took part in a sweaty two-hour Zumbathon, at St Catherine’s Church Hall, in Beach Road, which raised more than £200 in a single night.
Other fundraisers included the sale of a 2010 England rugby shirt at the club’s annual party and a coffee, cake tea and raffle day at St Peter and Paul’s Church hall, in Rustington, which both raised healthy sums of cash.
The money was handed over to the delighted Scouts during INSIGHT’s annual general meeting.
