We are Eastbourne ECO Action Network, based in the coastal town of Eastbourne in East Sussex. We have a mission to help Eastbourne become a Carbon Neutral town by 2030, thereby making a significant, fair contribution towards the UK’s legally binding target of achieving Net Zero by 2050.

We are a social enterprise that facilitates collaboration and partnership working across the borough, bringing local councillors, council officers, community groups, charities, and businesses together to create initiatives and projects that will reduce local carbon emissions, and increase carbon capture, as quickly and efficiently as possible, whilst simultaneously increasing the quality of life and wellbeing for all through the co-benefits of climate action, such as cleaner air, safer streets, and greener public spaces.
