West Sussex Beach Wardens
The West Sussex Beach Wardens are a volunteer group who work to raise awareness and conservation of this important coastline.
The Beach Wardens are a fully working group with a committee and help out at national events to raise awareness such as World Oceans Day and Marine Week. We also conduct surveys of coastal flora and fauna and litter. The data collected from these surveys is collated by the Sussex Biodiversity Records Centre, MCS (litter survey), and the Beach Wardens. It will be useful for mapping species change, phenology and the general state of our coast and sea.
Other practical work we do includes beach cleans, walks and talks. We have 4 subgroups undertaking this work to allow local community knowledge to flourish. These are Chichester/Pagham area, Arun, Adur, and Shoreham.
This work is supported by Southern Water, who recently became our main sponsor.
Helen Sparkes, Community Programmes Officer says -
"We are absolutely delighted we can offer this support to the Beach Wardens
as at Southern Water we are working towards a common goal of protecting
our precious coastline"
