Sussex police are looking to identify a man in connection to a series of robberies in Horsham Park.

Officers were called to a report of five robberies in the park on 24 September, where it is reported three people stole phones from five others around 4.30pm.

An 18-year-old male from Three Bridges and a 17-year-old from London were arrested in connection with the incidents and have been released on conditional bail.

Now, the investigating officers would like to speak with man who they believe can assist with their enquiries.

You can view an image of him in the news pages of the Susy Radio website.

If anyone has any information that can assist the police with their enquiries, you are asked to contact them on 101.

From 10am on Monday 2 December, residents with low incomes can apply online for a small grant from the government’s Tandridge Household Support Fund.

The Council has contributed an additional £54,000 from its own resources to the government fund, ensuring as many households as possible receive support.

Residents can apply online at www.tandridge.gov.uk/supportfund or call 01883 722000. The application period runs for two weeks, closing at 11.59pm on Sunday 15 December.

Grants are available to households even if they have received a grant from this fund before. Successful applicants will receive their payments after the Christmas holidays.

Eligible households without children will receive £125.
Eligible households with children under 19 will receive £225.

To apply, residents must upload three bank statements (from September to November 2024) showing all transactions otherwise the application will be rejected. Those applying by phone will need to bring their documents to the Council Offices in Oxted.

Councillor Catherine Sayer, Leader of the Council, said: “This fund is here to provide crucial support for those most in need, even if they have applied before.”

Gatwick Airport is trialling new Smart Stand technology to manage aircraft turns.

The trial is being run with easyJet and allows aircraft turns to be performed from a central control room, record turn events automatically and apply AI when the plane is ready to leave. 

The Airport says the Smart Stand can improve turn around time and maintain punctuality, by enabling jet bridge operators to manage aircraft turns without having to attend every arriving aircraft. 

The first live trial took place in May and is expected to run until next summer.
