Worthing town hall ADUR and Worthing councils have been awarded more than £1.7m to help them become carbon neutral by 2030. The projects include installing low carbon heating systems at the Shoreham Centre along with the Marsh House and Shadwells Court sheltered housing schemes, retrofitting solar panels at a variety of sites, and installing secondary glazing at Worthing Town Hall. The council made a bid for the money from the government’s Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme, which was set up in September, and the Low Carbon Skills Fund. News of the successful bids was described as ‘really fantastic’ by Worthing leader Daniel Humphreys during a meeting of the joint strategic committee. A report to the committee said the aim was to complete all projects by the autumn.
