Free tickets to a crunch derby football match are being offered to locals.

Whitehawk FC will take on Lewes FC at The Enclosed Ground in East Brighton Park, Brighton, today (February 2) at 3pm.

Brighton Kemptown MP Simon Kirby has written to constituents in Whitehawk to offer residents the opportunity to attend the Ryman Premier League match.

Mr Kirby said there will be no cost to the taxpayer.

Residents will need to bring the letter and proof of address with them on the day.

Due to capacity, the offer is only open to Whitehawk residents.
