A huge thank you to everyone who came along to Warwick Davis’ Eastbourne Local History Talk; Motcombe Public Baths. It was wonderful to see such a great turnout and so much interest in our local heritage.

Special thanks to Warwick and to the fantastic team at Eastbourne Library, especially Alison and Stuart, for their support and hard work in helping make the event such a success.

We really appreciate everyone who joined us and helped make it such an enjoyable afternoon!

🌊 Exciting news from Motcombe Community Pool! 🌊

We’re delighted to share that Phase 1 of our vision for Motcombe Community Pool is planned to open in Spring 2026 — a big step forward for this much-loved community space 💙

Phase 1 will see the former Pool Caretakers’ house transformed into a Wellbeing and Health Hub, featuring consulting and workshop spaces and a modern, well-equipped fitness studio. This hub will support both physical and mental wellbeing while helping to generate vital income to support the pool’s long-term future.

We had a wonderful time at the Eastbourne Local History Society’s “History of Old Town” event on 15 December at Gather in The Beacon. It was a real pleasure to spend the day with local historian Warwick Davis and Anna from the Beachy Head Ambassadors and to meet so many visitors.

We loved chatting about our project and hearing the many fond memories of swimming at Motcombe Pool—thank you to everyone who shared their stories and support for restoring this much-loved place 💙

Our next event is our Health Walk on Thursday 29 January 2026—we’d love you to come and walk with us!
