Celebrating Seaford

Seaford Action for Nature raises awareness of the need to increase biodiversity in Seaford and supports our communities in taking practical steps to achieve an increase in the biodiversity of Seaford.

The UK’s wildlife is in decline with many types of plants, insects, birds and animals reduced in number as they struggle to cope with habitat loss, pollution and climate change.

How does “Seaford Action for Nature” make a difference?

• We’re helping Seaford schools create meadows, orchards and hedgerows.
• We’re supporting the Town Council to create meadows in our parks.
• Our Green Champions are monitoring our green spaces for increased biodiversity and planning to map this data on a new website.
• We’re encouraging people to help wildlife in their gardens.
• We’re talking to people about the biodiversity crisis.
• We host and manage the Renaturing Seaford website.

Working in partnership

We’re working with Seaford Town Council to help their aim to find the right balance between promoting wildlife, wildflowers and keeping the town’s verges tidy and attractive.

We’ll keep talking to councillors to improve biodiversity in our green spaces to improve them for people and wildlife.

We’re running events in partnership with other groups, for example talks, walks and community events where we talk to people about wildlife and biodiversity.

We also run the Renaturing Seaford website, to share stories about nature in Seaford.

How can you get involved?

• Join our friendly community group: everyone is welcome – you don’t need to have any special skills! At the moment, we’re particularly looking for people to help with communications, schools and community events.
• If you live near a green space, you could join other volunteers keeping an eye out and monitoring its value to wildlife.
• Join our mailing list to find out more about what’s happening in Seaford, including regular events and meet ups.
• Adopt or improve your own garden for wildlife, which helps join up green corridors for wildlife across the town. Check out our “Metre Square for Wildlife” page.
• Share your stories and photographs to inspire others, and help us record our renaturing journey.
