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.

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

We have started to improve some of the neglected areas in Saltdean’s Oval Park.

2,000 native snowdrops and bluebells ‘in the green’ have been planted and mounds of dead wood, brambles and rubbish removed.

The group will be meeting most Sundays from 10am-midday and occasional Tuesday mornings.

If you are interested in getting involved please contact bridget@bridgetbythesea.com or 07946 342 903.
