Community Transport Sussex has said it is ‘delighted to have won the award for Community Contribution at the prestigious Gatwick Diamond Business Awards. The event, held in Brighton this month, celebrates the achievements of individual businesses and people across a wide range of categories.
The charity provides transport services and support to the residents & community groups of Mid Sussex, Horsham, Crawley, Adur & Worthing, Chichester and across West Sussex. Those services are aimed at all those people who because of disability, age, mobility problems, financial disadvantage, rural or other isolation factors, find it difficult to access public transport.
Matt Roberts, CEO, said “We are hugely delighted to have received this award. It’s wonderful that a voluntary sector organisation like ours has been recognised for its innovation and delivery by the business community. This award is testament to the work of every one of our colleagues and volunteers. We continue to strive to ensure that no one in our county is disadvantaged by not having access to safe, affordable, accessible transport. This award recognises the vital work we do to bring people and communities together”.
The Awards evening was hosted by the charming comedian Kerry Godliman (pictured with CTS’s Lee Gander and Matt Roberts).
