Sustainability Strategy Update

A reminder that the Parish Council’s Sustainability Strategy is on the Council Policies page of the website. The Parish Council continues to manage Hurst Meadows to enhance biodiversity and nature recovery and will again be supporting No Mow May and the West Sussex Road Verge Trial Scheme, both of which aim to increase numbers and variety of wild flowers and the pollinators and other insects which depend on them. Lighting is being replaced in the public toilets and bus shelters with LED units which use less electricity. More bike racks have been installed and sections of the planned Hassocks to Albourne cycle path are expected to be delivered in Hassocks and Hurstpierpoint this Summer by West Sussex County Council.
