    You can view a recorded presentation which explains the designs for the medium-term project (also known as Phase 1). The designs have been developed to keep the coastline between Eastbourne and Pevensey resilient to the risk of flooding from the sea. This project is due to start in 2027 for 10 years.

    The presentation can be accessed here(External link).

  • Long-term plan- professional partner workshop

    supporting image
    The long-term plan will consider approaches to managing the coastline from 2037 into the next century.

    At the beginning of October 2024 the Pevensey Bay to Eastbourne Coastal Management Scheme project team hosted a professional partner workshop, to kickstart the involvement of external organisations in the early stages of developing a long-term plan.


    The aim was to raise awareness of future coastal flood risk in the area and to understand the wider assets and activities that could be at risk in the future if action was not taken. The information gathered will support the development of business cases and inform futures options.


    More information on the long-term project and timeline can be found at- www.pevenseyandeastbournecoast.co.uk/long-term-plan


    Image Description: There were 70 attendees at the partner workshop, including local authority departments (planners, social care, education), transport companies, water and energy companies, NHS, Police, fire service, and environmental charities.

  • New display gabion in Pevensey Bay

    In addition to our trio in Eastbourne, we now have a display gabion in Pevensey Bay (Coast Road car park). We use these gabions to publicly display project information and for this new addition, we have also included the Marine Manifesto that was created by our friends at Little Green Pig and young writers from Langney Primary Academy.

  • Collaborative schools project - artwork now on display

    supporting image
    On 6 June, we installed several display boards on the hoardings at Eastbourne Bandstand to showcase artwork created by local students as part of a collaborative project with the Coastal Schools Partnership.
    Local students were invited to investigate the theme of ‘Our changing coastline’ and help tell a story to the wider community about how the area has changed, and how it may change in the future. The result was this wonderful collection of art including textiles, photography, creative writing and painting.
    Some of the students involved recently came to visit the display along with their teachers and members of the project team.



    We plan to display the artwork until September. Find out more at: www.pevenseyandeastbournecoast.co.uk/our_changing_coastline


    UPDATE: We have since installed another set of the same artwork on the hoardings by the Redoubt and at the Environment Agency depot in Pevensey Bay!
