CPRE Sussex appeal to help communities protect the Sussex countryside

8th October 2026

Across Sussex, communities are standing up to development that threatens the landscapes, wildlife, villages and farmland they love. They have valuable local knowledge and experience — but too often, these stories and campaigns remain disconnected.

With your support, we can map community campaigns across Sussex, speak directly with people affected by development pressures, and bring their evidence and experience together.

This will help us understand the scale and nature of the threats facing Sussex, identify shared concerns, connect communities facing similar challenges and build stronger relationships with local campaigners. It will also ensure grassroots knowledge feeds directly into CPRE Sussex’s communications, advocacy and policy work — strengthening our influence with decision-makers.

We need to raise £10,000 this autumn to make this project possible.

Every gift will help connect communities, strengthen local campaigns and give people across Sussex a stronger collective voice.

Please donate today and help protect the Sussex countryside for future generations.
