Calling all local groups and organisations.
Sussex Community Foundation is offering grants of up to £5,500 for community-based work that helps Sussex residents and local groups prepare for emergencies such as severe weather, flooding, storm damage, coastal or transport disruption, public health emergencies, utilities failure, and other major incidents identified in the Sussex Community Risk Register. Funded activity should improve preparedness, reduce harm, and help communities recover more quickly when disruption happens.
Please see media release from SCF for more information.

Help Keep Our Village Roads Safer

Ringmer's Speedwatch team are looking for friendly volunteers to support their campaign to encourage safer driving throughout the village.

There are 6 Speedwatch sites across the village that need monitoring, and they'd love a few more helping hands!

All that is needed is is just 2 hours of your time per month.

If you are interested and would like more information, please visit- communityspeedwatch.org .

To join the Ringmer group please contact Ray at [email protected] or directly from communityspeedwatch.org via: - Register-Join Existing Group-Sussex-Lewes District-Ringmer RADAR-Registration Form. "

: Speeding has reached epidemic proportions and calls for a paradigm shift in the way we tackle it. That shift must include a change in the perception and management of community volunteers involvement with road safety. https://web2.communityspeedwatch.org/FRONT-v2-The_Scheme.php...
