Our network brings together community groups, businesses, and councillors from across the Eastbourne area to engage in deep cross-community collaboration on climate action to support the climate change strategy initiated by Eastbourne Borough Council, with the overall goal of helping to deliver a carbon neutral town by 2030 as per the Climate Emergency declaration passed unanimously by full council on July 10th 2019.

We have set up 8 Working Groups that self-organise to design & implement practical projects that will reduce carbon emissions within the Eastbourne area as quickly as possible as well as helping to make the town a more sustainable, resilient, safe, and healthier community at the same time.

Eastbourne is a coastal community in the front line of climate change, confronting the rising seas and stronger storm surges of a rapidly warming world. We strive to develop a more sustainable and resilient town that can rise up to the challenges of climate change whilst improving the quality of life for all who live, work in, or visit the town.
