Sussex Wildlife Trust run courses and events for all ages. Whether you want to discover more about the wildlife of Sussex, spend time exploring one of our spectacular nature reserves or learn a new skill, there is something for you. 

You can view all our events, month by month, by visiting our What's on page or follow us on Eventbrite to be the first to hear about new events as they go online. 

Did you know that we run free walks for our Sussex Wildlife Trust members with special lower rates on most events and courses?

We have recently updated our terms and conditions. Please read them in full before booking.

We have now moved our ticketing over to Eventbrite. If you already have a user account with us, you will still need this for booking onto some events this year and for purchasing items from the online shop.
