He continued: “With music from Count Basie, Gordon Goodwin, Bobby Darin, Diane Schuur and many more, there’s guaranteed to be something for everyone.”

Band leader and organiser Jim has a personal connection with Cystic Fibrosis and wanted to combine his love of music with raising funds and awareness for research for the thousands who suffer from this life-threatening disease, he explained.

Jim is promising a raffle with generous donations from local residents and businesses, all of which will be run and supported by The Rotary club of Steyning and Henfield, The Steyning Music Society and The Steyning Jazz Club.

Tickets for the evening cost £12 and are available from the Steyning Bookshop on 01903 812062 or from the fundraising page.
