Coronavirus: key workers offered free rooms by Chichester bar and hotel during crisis

A number of emergency services staff took up the offer of a free room at the South Street bar including one fire fighter who is self isolating away from his family.

The Vestry's designated premises supervisor, Nick Marshall, said staff were happy to be able to help.

"We are doing all we can for as long as this situation continues so we have donated ten rooms. It just seems that we are in a position to do something about it.

"The response has been really good.

"We are really appreciative of the work of the key workers and we are happy we are able to do this. Thanks to all the key workers that are continuing to keep things running and, in some cases, have been putting themselves at risk."
