Business in West Sussex
The West Sussex coast is a working strip rather than a commuter one. Worthing has a substantial financial and professional services base behind its seafront; Shoreham has a commercial port handling aggregates and timber and the oldest licensed airfield in the country; Littlehampton has a harbour, a marina and light industrial units inland. A lot of the firms are family-run and long-established, which shows up in premises that are older than the businesses in them and in supplier contracts nobody has re-read in a decade.

West Sussex — common questions
Nick Thomas is based in Worthing. Does that mean the rest of West Sussex is an afterthought?
No — Worthing is where he is based rather than the limit of where he goes, and Crawley, Chichester, Horsham and the coast are covered directly. What it does mean is that a site visit in Worthing happens sooner than one in Chichester, which is a difference of an hour rather than of interest. Most of the work is remote either way.
We run a hotel or visitor business on the West Sussex coast. What usually needs fixing?
Two things. Guest Wi-Fi that shares a connection with the booking system and the card terminals, so a full house slows all three — separating and capping guest traffic fixes it more cheaply than a bigger line. And phone routing written for office hours in a business whose calls come in the evening and at weekends.
Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?
We work across West Sussex generally, and we have pages for Worthing, Shoreham-by-Sea, Littlehampton, Crawley, Chichester, Horsham and Burgess Hill because those are the places we are most often in. Nick Thomas is based in Worthing and covers the county. If your town is not listed it does not mean we cannot help — it means nobody has written that page yet, so ring and ask.
Who would I actually be dealing with in West Sussex?
Nick Thomas, directly, on 01903 968831. Not an account queue and not a different person each time. Behind that sits the Southern Communications Group — the carrier relationships, the buying power and a support desk that runs around the clock — so a small business in West Sussex is priced inside a national account while dealing with someone local.
What does SCG Solutions do for businesses in West Sussex?
Cloud telephony and Microsoft Teams calling, business internet from broadband to leased lines, business mobiles across every major UK network, and network security — with IT support, cloud hosting and business continuity behind them. What that looks like in practice varies a lot across West Sussex, which is why each town has its own page rather than one county-wide answer.
We have sites in more than one West Sussex town. Can that be one system?
Yes, and it is usually cheaper as well as simpler. One cloud phone system spans every site with internal dialling between them, one bill rather than several, and calls that can be answered at whichever site has someone free. Multi-site is the case where the group buying power tells most, because you are pricing several connections and licence counts at once rather than one.
The 2027 switch-off affects West Sussex too. Every analogue and ISDN line in the UK stops working in January 2027. If you are not sure what that means for your lines, the detail is worth ten minutes.
