So far Brighton Girl has raised £250 for Together Co from add-ons to tickets sales for its events.

Pippa said: “I created Brighton Girl because I felt lonely in the city I live in, and I needed some support, guidance and encouragement.
“Since creating it I have become less lonely, but I have met a lot of people who are lonely.
