Have your say on what makes the Sussex Heritage Coast Special

The Sussex Heritage Coast Partnership brings together the 10 organisations looking after some of Britain’s most iconic coastline – stretching from Seaford, past Cuckmere Haven and along the magnificent chalk cliffs of Seven Sister and Beachy Head to Eastbourne in the South Downs National Park.

We want to be able to tell the story of this special place so that it can be conserved and enjoyed by future generations. To tell its story, we need to know exactly what it is that makes this stretch of coastline so special to you – what are the ‘special qualities’ of this unique and internationally recognised place?

There are two ways you can have your say:

  1. Do a quick online questionnaire https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/sussexcoast

Vicky Lawrence, Countryside & Policy Manager for the South Downs National Park Authority and Chair of the Heritage Coast Partnership, said:

“The Sussex Heritage Coast is an instantly recognisable and iconic part of the South Downs National Park. Many millions of people enjoy the coast each year and we want to work together with those who love this place to make sure it can be conserved and enjoyed for generations to come.”
