Hurst Rethink

Hurst Rethink

We are a group of locals who have joined forces to drive sustainable change in the villages of Hurstpierpoint and Sayers Common. All of the group are volunteers and we have no political affiliations.

We have decided to focus our efforts on five main action areas: Biodiversity and Nature, Community, Green Consumer, Green Homes & Energy and Green Transport. Underpinning all of this will be work with the relevant local councils (Parish Council, Mid Sussex District Council, West Sussex County Council) and action groups as well as publicity and education in our community. Read more about us.

Our next meeting is Monday April 22nd 2024 at 7:30pm in the New Inn. Join us if you can to celebrate Earth Day and hear about our plans.

The Hurst Jumble Trail is back for 2024!

Meet your neighbours, pick up a bargain, help people make money for charity.. It’s win-win-win! The Hurst Jumble Trail 2024 will be held on Sunday 14th April from 10am – 2pm. Please join us in this village wide community day. Below is a map of the households taking part:

If you’re interested in helping us, even if it’s for an hour or two a month, we’d love to hear from you.

Learn About Sustainability

We highly recommend the What Planet Are We On Podcast’, available on BBC Sounds. Presenter Liz Bonnin delves into various issues, including our relationship with wildlife, agriculture, consumerism and economics. It’s a great way of gaining insight into the issues facing us all and how we can change for the better.
