Worthing Coaches Partners with Worthing Theatres & Museums to Support Educational and Cultural Visits
1st June 2026
Worthing Coaches has announced a new collaborative partnership with Worthing Theatres & Museums aimed at making educational and cultural visits more accessible for schools and groups across the region.
The partnership will see Worthing Coaches provide discounted coach hire to groups visiting venues within the Worthing Theatres & Museums portfolio, helping to reduce the cost of learning outside the classroom and encouraging more young people to experience arts, culture and heritage first-hand.
As part of the initiative, schools visiting Worthing Theatres & Museums venues will benefit from a fixed-price coach hire offer of £349, creating affordable and reliable transport options for educational visits and theatre trips.
The collaboration further strengthens Worthing Coaches’ commitment to the local community, following its existing role as official transport provider to Worthing FC.
Quote from Jiten Desai, Commercial Director at Worthing Coaches:
“We are delighted to be partnering with Worthing Theatres & Museums to support our local theatre and museum group while helping reduce the cost of learning outside the classroom.
“This partnership creates more opportunities for schools and young people to access new cultural experiences and educational visits which can have a lasting impact beyond the classroom environment.
“We know many schools only proceed with outdoor learning trips when affordable transport options are available, so it is fantastic to play a role in helping make those experiences possible.
“As official transport provider for both Worthing FC and Worthing Theatres & Museums, we are proud to continue strengthening our position as a genuine part of the local community.”
Quote from Jill Stewart, Executive Director, Worthing Theatres & Museum:
"Last year, three school groups had to withdraw from attending our pantomime because they simply couldn't afford transport on top of ticket costs. That was heartbreaking as these are exactly the local children who should be experiencing live theatre and engaging with our collections.
"Our partnership with Worthing Coaches changes that. Their fixed rate offer means our live events, workshops and exhibitions are now genuinely accessible to schools across our region. As a charity, removing financial barriers to arts and culture is at the heart of our mission, and we're delighted to have Worthing Coaches as our Official Transport Partner making that possible."
The partnership will also include a special pantomime season travel initiative throughout December 2026, with fixed-rate coach hire available for eligible Worthing Theatres & Museums bookings, helping schools and groups access seasonal theatre productions more affordably.
