Community Centre Q&A

A big thank you to everyone so far who has completed the online survey about the proposed Community Centre in a dis-used part of the village school.

We’ve had some really positive responses and clearly there are a lot of people who think it’s a facility that our community needs. As part of the survey we asked people to let us know if they had any specific questions, ideas or concerns about the proposal and we’ve now created a Q&A sheet to come back to you with some answers.

This is now available on the Community Centre Proposal page on this website and can be found here – Survey Q&A

You can still complete the short questionnaire if you’ve not already done so.. which can be found here –

Easebourne Community Centre Proposal

Easebourne Parish Council aspire to create a 3500sqft Community Centre at the heart of the Village, by refurbishing a section of the Primary School that faces Easebourne Park. This part of the school has remained un-used for over 10 years and West Sussex County Council have no plans for it to return to use as part of the School.

The proposal would create a series of flexible spaces available to the community for a wide variety of uses, including social events, wellbeing activities, a space for local clubs and societies to meet, exhibition spaces, business & meeting rooms, a permanent home for the Council, a coffee shop and outdoor spaces. We fully expect this list to grow!

The project is a significant investment for the Parish Council, but we expect it will be entirely funded through grants and not the contribution the Parish Council receive as part of your Council Tax. Our aspiration is to have the facility up and running during Summer 2026.

We’ve now added a new page to this website where we will bring you the latest news and information about this exciting project. Over the coming months this page will be used to share updates and information so you can learn more about what the Centre could look like, the facilities we hope it will include, what it could be used for and our thoughts about timings.

We’ll also post on here important updates for when and where you will be able to view the plans and talk to Councillors, but in the meantime we would appreciate it if you could take a few moments to complete our survey to let us know your thoughts on the concept. Please follow this link to access the survey – https://forms.cloud.microsoft/r/wQqJ6gutAz

If you have any questions at any stage, please get in touch by emailing parishclerk@easebourne.org

SGN works will be completed early

SGN works update – 05/08/25

Following the weekly meeting with SGN this morning chaired by County Councillor – Yvonne Gravely, we are pleased to share that the engineering works will be completed by Friday 8th August. Road reinstatement will begin the same evening from 7pm to 12am.

To minimise disruption, the traffic management system will be removed over the weekend (Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th August) and will be temporarily reinstalled on Monday 11th August to allow repairs to the hoardings around the Angel Hotel and to install the artwork. All traffic management will be fully removed by Wednesday 13th August.

This is a great result, as the works were originally expected to take six weeks, but thanks to SGN’s hard work, they are finishing two weeks early. SGN are also working closely with SDNPA to ensure the traffic management system can remain in place, the hoardings and artwork is safely installed without causing disruption and being a later closure with more traffic lights.

The aim is to carry out the final stages with minimal disruption to residents and traffic.

Park behaviour

On the evening of Monday 7th April a group of youngsters entered the Park from the direction of Birthday House, enjoyed a pizza and several boxes of beer in The Roundhouse and kindly left all their rubbish. The CCTV has been useful to identify the details of the incident and the 4 involved.
We know that the Park is there for all to enjoy, we do also provide 4 rubbish bins that are emptied regularly and are placed around the park so you never have to walk far to reach one.
Volunteers have kindly now collected their rubbish and have disposed of it. We will be asking our regular security patrols to keep a close eye on the area. If you have any information about this and would like to share confidentially with the Parish Council, please email parishclerk@easebourne.org

North Mill Bridge Update 14/3

Unfortunately we have received news that the stone delivery has been delayed and the first delivery will now arrive on the 20th March, with the remainder the following week. The Stonemason is due to begin work immediately afterwards. We are still hopeful that the work to rebuild the wall can be completed quicker than the originally estimated 4 weeks.

Defibrillator recovered

After one of the village Defibrillators was taken without purpose earlier in the week we can confirm that it has now been recovered and will shortly be returned inside the phonebox. A big thank you to several residents who quickly responded to our Facebook post asking for any information.

Thankfully the device has not been damaged but this mindless action could well have endangered someone’s life had it been needed. The incident has been reported to the Police who continue to investigate.

If you have any information as to who was involved or saw anything please contact the Police or the Parish Council.
