Our campaigns bring local knowledge and evidence together to seek practical improvements. Explore the issues, follow our work and find out how you can take part.
We believe Southern Water's wastewater recycling schemes should be carefully scrutinised and sewage discharges that threaten our rifes, rivers, coastal waters and wildlife habitats must be stopped. We brought a formal motion to West Sussex County Council demanding independent testing for 'forever chemicals' (PFAS) and total transparency on outfall impacts.
We are demanding Independent testing of recycled waste water be routinely tested for forever chemicals. We are calling for discharge-impact transparency, and county-level scrutiny made public.
Our villages flooded badly last winter, and the sewers behind them are already at capacity. Yet more homes keep getting approved while the promised upgrades are still years away. We're demanding a freeze on new connections until the fix is built. Click "Find out more" to read the full story.
We are gathering local evidence of overflow points, repeated flooding and public safety impacts, and sharing updates so residents can follow the campaign.
Residents and parish councils should help shape the future of their communities. In the Fontwell Division, 4,500 homes are planned while the full A29 bypass remains unfunded. We are calling for roads, schools and local services to be funded before development is approved.
We're campaigning for a full safety assessment of the A29 Fontwell Avenue and Barnham Road junction that intersects with the War Memorial Roundabout in Eastergate - which is a historic mini roundabout never designed for the weight of traffic it now receives following the significant growth of housing developments.
We are strongly campaigning for safer roads. Our current campaign is at Eastergate War Memorial. Children have to cross here to get to school along with pedestrians all having to run the gauntlet by stepping into live traffic; besieged by heavy traffic, HGV's turning on blind bends and poorly laid out roads.
The monument itself has been repaired 32 times in the past 5 years from being struck by vehicles. Latest data shows 6,000+ vehicles use the road every day and 400+ a day recorded as speeding.
Building a community petition for safe crossings to be installed at Eastergate. Working with the Parish Council to secure a Community Highways Scheme application.
