Shelter concerns
Although Bognor is lucky to have more sunshine than many other resorts, wind is the enemy of sitting on the promenade enjoying the fresh air and sunshine.
Shelter from the wind (and sometimes rain) is essential, but it is futile suggesting that an attractive round shelter be provided in place of the brick ones, as they are ineffective and provide no cover for children’s buggies or wheelchairs.

And my main question is: Where are the police? And why are they not moving these layabouts on?
So please, Ian Sumnall, do not consider denying Bognor residents this important amenity but rather chase up the police to deal with the problem.
