West Sussex County Council has thrown its support behind Crawley’s bid for city status.

As part of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations next year, she is due to confer city status on a number of towns – and they have until Wednesday (December 8) to submit their bids.

In 2012, the Diamond Jubilee year, Chelmsford, Perth and St Asaph received the honour – and Crawley hopes to join them in 2022.
