2024 Worthing Borough Council election

The 2024 Worthing Borough Council election was held on Thursday 2 May 2024, alongside the other local elections being held in the United Kingdom on the same day.

Three days after the election, three Labour Worthing councillors resigned from the party.

Background
Worthing Borough Council elects a third of its councillors 3 out of every 4 years, with elections to West Sussex County Council in the 4th year. 13 seats out of 37 were up for election in 2024.

At the previous election, held in 2023, the Labour Party increased the number of seats they had on the council by 1 to have 24 seats. The Conservative Party lost 2 seats and the Greens gained 1. As a result, the council remained under Labour control.

The Liberal Democrats went into the election defending their last seat on the Council, in Tarring ward, having been in overall control of the Council as recently as 2003.

Ward Results
All 13 wards have a full slate of candidates from Labour, the Conservatives, the Greens and the Lib Dems.
