A new business website will include news, help and advice.

The Business West Sussex website, hosted by West Sussex County Council, features help and support.

Businesses can find details of grants and funding and information on trading standards, planning, business rates and workplace health.

Councillor Louise Goldsmith, leader of the council, said many firms have not known where to access information.

She said: “We havetaken their comments on board and the result is the new website.”
