Our sections meet once a week and take part in a wide range of activities. Being in the beautiful South Downs National Park, we try to be outside as much as possible. We explore and enjoy the woods, nature reserves and hills on our doorstep. Click on the links below to find out more about each Section or find out about Joining here or being a volunteer leader here
