Watch Bognor Regis firefighters Clap for Carers outside hospital

Members of the Green Watch at Bognor fire station took part to ‘show their appreciation for our key worker heroes’

Elsewhere, firefighters from Worthing gathered outside Worthing Hospital, while firefighters in Crawley clapped outside the ambulance service’s call handling centre.

This week’s Clap For Carers came shortly after Dominic Raab, who has been deputising for Prime Minister Boris Johnson, announced the lockdown measures in the UK will stay in place for at least another three weeks.

A message from the Editor, Gary Shipton:

In order for us to continue to provide high quality and trusted local news, I am asking you to please purchase a copy of our newspapers.

Our journalists are highly trained and our content is independently regulated by IPSO to some of the most rigorous standards in the world. But being your eyes and ears comes at a price. So we need your support more than ever to buy our newspapers during this crisis.

Stay safe, and best wishes.
