WONDER OF WORTHING: Offers of help for drama group
W reported on the £600 being stolen, earlier in the year, from the Worthing home of Victoria Monroe, who runs the not-for-profit drama group Tori Productions.
Since then, various people have come forward to help the group, with Worthing production company, Regnante School of Performing Arts and Theatre Productions, offering Wizard of Oz costumes and other people offering to run stalls at the Tori Productions’ fête.

Victoria, 32, of The Drive, Worthing, said: “It’s lovely that people have come forward and been so generous.
“When someone enters your home it shakes you up and makes you feel pessimistically about the world.
“But when strangers phone you to offer help, it makes you realise it’s a one-off and there are nice people out there.”
