Who are we?

The Friends of the Hampden Park was formed in 2005 by local residents.  Our aim is ‘the preservation and enhancement of the quality of the parkland and open spaces of Hampden Park for the enjoyment and benefit of park users’.  Regular newsletters and meetings keep members informed of progress and achievements. Our progress to date is summarised here.

Encouraging improvement

The Friends work in close association with the Parks & Gardens department of Eastbourne Borough Council and their contractors to bring about improvements.  When possible we help by sourcing funding or sponsorship to enable work to be undertaken.  

Ownership by involvement

We seek to encourage the local community, and especially the young people in the area, to participate in park projects.  Our most important project is the restoration of the Decoy Pond to its former glory - for the latest position on our negotiations with Eastbourne Borough Council click here.
