00:00 Hi, I'm Megan Baker, a reporter for Sussex World, and here are the top stories for today,

00:05 Tuesday November 7th.

00:08 The family of a teenager killed in a collision in Hastings has paid tribute to her.

00:13 Police said the 18-year-old, Sophie Ford, was the sole passenger in a vehicle involved

00:18 in a collision on the A21 in Kent Street at night on Friday October 27th.

00:24 The driver of the vehicle, a 27-year-old man, was taken to hospital with serious but not

00:29 life-threatening injuries where he remains, police added.

00:33 In a tribute, Sophie's family said, "We are devastated at the loss of our beloved

00:38 daughter, sister, niece, cousin, granddaughter and friend, to so many.

00:42 A recent leaver from Battle Abbey School, Sophie was an avid animal lover and sportswoman

00:47 who loved to sing and listen to music.

00:51 Sophie touched the hearts of so many people both in the region and overseas and she will

00:55 be very sadly missed by us all."

00:59 On Worthing, major plans have been revealed to transform a multi-storey car park.

01:04 Worthing Borough Council said the Grafton multi-storey car park could be sold off to

01:08 be demolished and redeveloped into homes and a gateway to the seafront.

01:12 Caroline Baxter, Worthing's Cabinet Member for Regeneration, said, "Grafton has done

01:18 its job as a car park but is the centre of an ugly, untidy part of the town that urgently

01:23 needs to be transformed."

01:25 Redeveloping this site in a way that could benefit the community and at the same time

01:29 support the regeneration of our historic seafront would be an exciting and imaginative solution.

01:37 Councillors are to consider plans to sell the site and neighbouring shops to a developer

01:42 to transform the area, with at least 150 new homes as well as enhanced leisure facilities,

01:48 commercial units and green spaces for the community.

01:52 And finally, the annual Winter Fair will return to the South of England Showground in West

01:56 Sussex this month.

01:58 The event will take place in Ardingly on Saturday November 18th and Sunday November 19th.

02:04 It offers the ideal chance for visitors to kick-start their Christmas preparations and

02:09 enjoy some classic festive fun with the family.

02:12 There will be festive foods and drinks on offer, as well as distinctive gifts and stocking

02:17 fillers.

02:18 Younger visitors can enjoy a vintage carousel at the fun fair, step into a giant snow globe

02:23 for a memorable photo and meet Santa himself in his grotto.

02:26 - Yeah.
