• In 1998 a visit to Villerest witnessed the final signing of the twinning charter and the inauguration of ‘Square Storrington’ situated on the Route de Villemontais.
• In 2000 a slate plaque was unveiled in Place Villerest, Storrington by the Mayor of Villerest and the Chair of Storrington Parish Council. Place Villerest stands as a permanent reminder of the lasting friendship between the two communities.

Villerst is also twinned with Cerrione in the Piedmont region of Italy.

• In 2012 a visit to Cerrione by a group from Storrington saw the establishment of a friendship relationship with Cerrione. A fountain inscribed with the names of Cerrione, Villerest and Storrington stands in the main square as a permanent reminder of this visit. Families from Cerrione have spent time in the Storrington area.
