The WICC is a state-of-the-art facility funded by Worthing Borough Council, that will combine GP, mental health, community, and dentistry services under one roof, as well as providing a pharmacy and services for families and young children. There will also be a multi-storey car park adjacent to the WICC with electric vehicle charging points and cycle parking.
