Sussex Police have said that a new team in Eastbourne, working alongside police and partners to help keep people safe when they are out at night, has proved a huge success.

The Night Safety Marshals have already assisted in providing support to over 70 vulnerable women, and over 30 vulnerable men by way of helping them to reunite with friends and family, contact the Police or assist them in getting home safely.

As well as this, the team have highlighted and resolved more than 15 incidents of public disorder, helping to lower the levels of crime attributed by the night-time economy in the town centre over the weekend.
