News update for September  2023 – KEEP LANCING LOVELY
Hello there
Here are our upcoming events
Sunday 24th September  2023 – A joint litter pick to celebrate World Cleanup Day and  undertake our annual “forensic” litter pick for Marine Conservation Society on a designated stretch of the beach where we catalogue all that we collect by category and add the data to the database about our beach. You are welcome to help with that or to carry out our “normal” litter picking. Signing in from 10am until about 1130am. Look for our flags near The Kiosk/The Perch on Beach Green
Tuesday 24th October 2023 – Tidy Tuesday 10am to Noon. Pop along to conduct your own litter pick by borrowing our kit, bring your family and friends. Look for us near the toilet block on Beach Green
Saturday 28th October – We have a stall 10am to 1pm at the Lancing Village “Halloween” Market in South Street
Sunday 29th October - our regular last Sunday of the month beach litter pick. Signing in from 10am until about 1130am. Look for our flags near The Kiosk/The Perch on Beach Green
We are delighted to announce that we have been chosen by the Co-Op to be part of their 2022/3 local community funding scheme. Customers will be able to select us to pay a percentage of their spending towards our aim of giving as many year 6 schoolchildren in our local community a tote bag containing information about keep lancing lovely and other environmental matters that affect us all. You can support us by using this link https://membership.coop.co.uk/causes/72465 ​
27 08 2023 Our stats from today. 16 adults and 3 children collected 2.5kg for recycling and 6kg for landfill. Big thanks to all who helped. Our next monthly Lancing beach litter pick is Sunday 24th September signing in from 10am. Our last Tidy Tuesday of the summer holidays is on Tuesday 29th August, borrow our kit from 10am to 1pm #keeplancinglovely
18 08 2023 Keep Lancing Lovely are Station Partners at Lancing Railway Station with Southern Trains. Planters, beds and small gardens are maintained there. We greatly enjoy doing this as we know that it gives a bit of a "lift" to passengers, those walking by and residents
Increasingly we are putting in perennial plants and small shrubs as we seek to be as sustainable as possible and use our volunteering time effectively. This transition is going to take a couple of years. Annuals will still be used particularly for our "trains" in the southern gateside and north of platform 1
If you have plants that you would like to donate for the station or an hour or so a week to join the volunteers, please get in touch by Direct Message or via our website at https://keeplancinglovely.weebly.com/

28 06 2023 Keep Lancing Lovely are proud to have been made "Environmental Group of the Year 2023 " by Lancing Parish Council in May 2023


30 07 2023 Despite high winds and rain arriving, 14 adults and 1 child joined us for our monthly beach litter pick. 2 kg of recycling was collected and 20kg for landfill, mostly made up of a mattress and bedding! Fingers crossed for a better weather day for our next pick, Sunday 27th August
Worryingly we found some very large gas cannisters; here is a link that might explain

Wonderful to see the artwork about Keep Lancing Lovely by Amanda Beck being placed at The Community Hub in the Lancing Parish Hall. Amanda came along to watch what we do as we litter pick, to get a sense of the very wide range of our supporters and how we keep the environment and creatures there safe – the result is this beautiful creation!

A big “thank you” to Amanda and Lancing Parish Council, please pop down to The Community Hub to see it!
