Inside tomorrow’s Littlehampton Gazette

This week, the Gazette has a special report about open prisons which have been slammed by Bognor Regis and Littlehampton MP Nick Gibb.

It follows the escape of two ‘dangerous’ and ‘violent’ criminals from Ford Open Prison.

There’s also news about members of a Rustington family who could be facing jail after turning up to a relative’s home armed with baseball bats in a revenge attack.

The Gazette has also conducted a special investigation into the impact of hate crime across the area.

Other news includes the latest updates on plans to build an incinerator in Ford and a report on an East Preston man’s compensation victory after he was left disabled by a hit-and-run motorist.

There’s plenty of good news, too, including the heroic efforts of a Rustington woman who completed a gruelling 100k fundraising run for her young nephew.

There is also a special picture spread of the East Preston Festival.

We have pages packed with pictures from local events and you can read the latest views of our readers and columnists.

Our popular nostalgia section has a fascinating feature on the East Preston carnival procession in the decade before the First World War.

And the sports pages are, as always, packed with results and reports from the local sports-scene.

For all of this and much more, pick up your Gazette tomorrow.
