Adur and Worthing green spaces have once again been honoured with Green Flag Awards, a national mark of excellence, thanks to the efforts of Adur and Worthing Councils’ parks team and dedicated volunteers.
In Adur, the award has been retained at Lancing Ring, Lancing Manor Park, Buckingham Park in Shoreham and Shoreham Beach Local Nature Reserve.
In Worthing, Highdown Gardens, Marine Gardens, Denton Gardens, Field Place and Beach House Park have all maintained their Green Flag status.
Heene Cemetery in Worthing has also received the Green Flag Community Award, thanks to the work of the Friends of Heene Cemetery.
Councillor Andy Harvey, Adur’s cabinet member for the environment and leisure, said: “It’s fantastic that the Green Flag award has been retained at our green spaces.
“We take great pride in our parks and foreshore, which are enjoyed by nature and visitors alike throughout the year, so it’s wonderful to see that four of our district’s best sites have once again been recognised in this year’s awards.
“I would like to thank our parks team and all the local volunteers who have worked so hard over the past 12 months to achieve these well-earned awards.”
