Sunny Summer Worthing competition launched by Sir Peter Bottomley

Last year, the Sunny Summer Worthing competition attracted more than 250 submissions and the winner was invited to tea at the Palace of Westminster.

Sir Peter, MP for Worthing West, invites entries from across his constituency, including parts of Worthing, Rustington, Ferring, Kingston and East Preston.

He said: “Last year, entries ranged from delightful scenes of care home residents on the pier to scenic vistas across the coast.”

Sir Peter is looking for pictures that show the beauty that Worthing West has to offer in the summer.

To take part, residents simply need to upload the photo to Instagram and include the hashtag #SunnySummerWorthing.

The deadline for submissions is 11.59pm on Thursday, September 17, and there is no limit to how many entries each individuals can submit.

Entries will be judged after the closing date and there will be one grand prize winner and two runner ups. Winning photos will be published by the Worthing Herald and Littlehampton Gazette.
