The triumph will see a team from Dulux and The Sun spend August 25 at the centre on Westloats Lane providing a new look for its main hall.

Centre-based Carole Fullick, of the Bognor Community Action Network, said: "Winning the competition is brilliant news. I would say it's the biggest thing to happen to the centre since it was opened in 1938 by the Duke of Gloucester. Each person could only vote once. So I'm delighted the centre has received so much support from everyone."
