Become a volunteer.

We are always seeking volunteers to help support initiatives across Saltdean. The more volunteers we have the more we can do to make Saltdean an even better place to live and work.

We are actively recruiting for 2 workstreams and would love to hear from anyone who can spare a few hours or more to assist.

To express an interest please drop us a line via the Contact us page and we will be in touch.

Saltdean Pebble Dashers Group

Brighton & Hove City Council no longer have the funds available to maintain the promenade on a regular basis and this has caused much of the promenade to become impassable for bikes, prams and mobility scooters as well as runners and those with mobility difficulties.

We have agreed with Brighton & Hove City Council that Pebble Dashers will provide a volunteer group to take over the regular cleaning of the promenade between Saltdean and Rottingdean. Agreement has been reached for the permanent location for our own building in due course on the promenade at Saltdean. Funds are being arranged by Saltdean Residents and Community Association (SRCA) for this building and the tools required and in the interim we have been offered the use of SRCA’s beach hut to store the tools and be our temporary base.

We are now looking for volunteers who would like to spend some time clearing the debris from the promenade from Saltdean to Rottingdean. It is anticipated that we will arrange shifts to suit the volunteers’ lifestyles and the concept is to build up a friendly group of people who generate camaraderie and social relationships whilst sweeping the shingle into piles and then wheelbarrowing the shingle back onto the beach. This will be rather like painting the Forth Bridge!

 We anticipate those who want to join will be people who enjoy being outside in the fresh air, prepared to use a broom or shovel for a period of time and enjoy great conversation and have a relaxed and carefree time along with coffee/tea breaks with other local like-minded people!

Saltdean Oval Park

More info coming soon on our plans for the Saltdean Oval Park. However to start to bring together a team we are inviting residents to meet with us on Friday 5 February and Saturday 6 February at 10.00am to meet at the South end of the Park (by the harmony garden) where some of our Trustees will be to share more information.

We hope to see you there!
