One-stop care shop for West Sussex opens in Littlehampton

The Community Equipment Service, thought to be the largest of its kind in the country, means that occupational therapists, community nurses and therapists across the county will be able to order items needed to aid the care of people at home and have them delivered and installed on the same day if needed.

The depot, on the Lineside Industrial Estate, stocks 600 different items of equipment such as wheelchairs, bath seats, special beds and hoist systems, which will be available to people across the county as they need them.
