A Crowborough man who sexually assaulted two young children has been jailed for over 14 years. Andrew Evans, 38, worked at a nursery in Church Road, Crowborough, between September 2021 and January 2022.

In March 2022, police received a report from the family of a three-year-old boy who said he had been sexually assaulted by ‘Andy’ at nursery. Four months later, in July 2022, a three-year-old girl made separate allegations of sexual assault against Evans.

At the time the reports were made, Evans was already serving a custodial sentence after being jailed for six years and eight months in 2022 for sexual offences against two other children. These offences did not relate to his role at the nursery.
