She said: “It’s vital we get this funding. The wards closest to the Windmill are some of the most deprived in the county. We need to keep the amenities within this deprived area.”
Petitions can be signed at many businesses, including Hunnies Café, High Street, The Beach Hut, Pier Road and Gazette office in Beach Road. In Rustington, F. W. Skinner and Son, in Churchill Parade, and Owen Electrical, The Street, have forms. For more, see www.littlehamptoncivicsociety.org.uk
