A charity-funded bus has been launched to help youngsters.
The Mobile Youth bus (MYBus) launched this week to provide young people across Rottingdean, Ovingdean, Woodingdean and Saltdean with information and advice.
The bus, which was part-funded by Brighton and Hove City Council and the Play Area in Rottingdean committee (PARC), has been wrapped in images by local artist Mick Bensley.
Catherine Taylor, a member of PARC, said: “The bus means we can go out to areas where young people are, such as parks and beaches.
“Although we come under Brighton and Hove City Council we are separated by about three or four miles of countryside and we have quite a high population of young people but only one youth club in Rottingdean.”
The bus is staffed by two fully trained youth workers and will be out five days a week.
