Where they are
Worthing town centre, West Sussex

The situation that needed to be improved
Starting with a few security guards who wanted to communicate with each other across the town in the early part of 2005 Sussex Communications has been a constant partner with the growth of this Worthing Town Centre Initiative from the beginning. Growing into a fully fledged crime partnership with Sussex police.

The solution that Sussex Communications delivered
Working closely with the Worthing Town Centre Initiative this scheme has been growing steadily over the past decade. The shopwatch and pubwatch communities combining their shared information to make a complete town centre approach to create a safer Worthing.

Sussex Communications provides a mixture of two-way radio equipment to purchase outright. With a town centre wide two-way radio network operating through a business two way radio repeater Sussex Communications provides 24/7 support and maintenance to the scheme.

Keeping Worthing up to date with the latest technology, Sussex Communications upgraded the whole town to digital handheld business two-way radio units in 2017.

The main office has a desktop mobile two-way radio unit supplied with a handheld speaker- microphone. The screen on the mobile unit allows the office management to see the user ID of each of the handheld radios as they transmit.
