Royal Society For The Protection of Birds: Eastbourne & District Local Group (RSPB)

The group was reformed in 1994 and currently has about 120 members.

The group’s aims are to introduce new members to the RSPB, to support, to raise money to help save nature in the South East and to be involved with other community groups such as the friends of local parks (e.g. Hampden Park).

We hold monthly indoor meetings on the first Wednesday of the month (except for July and August, when there are outdoor events only) featuring a talk with slide show. They are held twice during the day, at 2.15pm until 4.30pm approx. and repeated during the evening at 7.00pm until 9.15pm approx. The afternoon meetings are served by bus and there is one bus to central Eastbourne after the evening meeting. The venue has a car park and local on-street parking is also available.

We have day trips by coach to field events all year round. And we have local walks on the second Wednesday and the third Saturday of the month. Please see our Talks and Walks pages for details.

Non-members are very welcome to attend our events. Or become a member of the local Eastbourne group for just £10 per year and benefit from reduced rates and a regular newsletter. To join our group complete and send your completed membership form to the address on the form or bring it along to one of our meetings.

We can also give talks on birds, nature and the RSPB to community groups in the local area.
