Founded in 1992 by residents, Dave Butler and Dave Collard, the annual Durrington Festival* has become a highlight in Worthing’s social calendar. The glorious committee featured below continue a long and illustrious tradition of championing a community of which they feel pride – despite the sometimes bad press. The committee comprise members of all ages who are drawn from the residents of the area as well as attracting volunteers from the business, education and religious communities. The focus of the committee is to organise, manage and resource a week long celebration of what Durrington has to offer.

of its service to the community and is regularly featured on radio, TV
and in the press.
