Welcome to Renaturing Seaford!
Renaturing Seaford is a communication hub, sharing awareness of the importance of biodiversity and nature in Seaford. Find out more about the groups working together to renature Seaford.
You can share news and observations, run a page for your own group, find volunteers and like-minded people to swap ideas with, or offer help and expertise to others.
We’d love to hear from you if you have a group, project, news, story or photographs. Let us know if you have feedback or would like to help!
Please spread the word about the website and sign up to the regular newsletter.
The “Renaturing Seaford” website was launched by Seaford Action for Nature, on behalf of groups in the town, It is run by volunteers and funded by the Ouse Valley Climate Action fund.
It is not an umbrella organisation. Groups and individuals retain ownership and responsibility for their own pages and updates.
Many thanks to our supporters including South Downs National Park, Ouse Valley Climate Action fund, Seaford Town Council, Seaford Community Partnership, Seaford Environmental Alliance and Lewes District Council.
