Traders welcome plans for new dental clinic in Worthing

Sample News Big

Traders at the Guildborne Centre shopping mall in Worthing have welcomed plans for a new dental clinic.

Bruno Silva, a dentist from Church Road, is seeking approval for plans to open a new dental clinic on the first floor of the mall. He has contacted Worthing Council to ask for permission to convert the former travel agents into a dental surgery.

Mr Silva’s plans include seven treatment rooms for seven dentists, a recovery room and an X-ray room. The planning application states that the shop has been empty since World Hoppers closed down four years ago.

Gavin O’Brian, the manager of Easy Weigh, located on the ground floor, told reporters that the shop had been vacant for a very long time and any kind of trade would be beneficial for the centre. He added that he had absolutely no objections to the proposal to open a dental clinic.

Another shop owner, Abe Daniel, from The Lighthouse, also backed the proposal, saying that filling an empty shop was always a good thing.
