'Flowers are lovely, dear' used to be the common cry heard in Worthing town centre, a memory that will warm the hearts of many who heard it over the decades.

The town has a long history of flower sellers in South Street, Montague Street and on Offington Corner, as well as at Wallace Parade in Goring.

Members of the Doe family were well known as the original flower sellers in Worthing and many grieved the passing of May Doe in October 2021 at the age of 83. She was a strong family lady, married to Nelson Doe in 1958.
