We own and manage the Sidmouth Museum and support recreational and cultural activities that celebrate our local community. The Sid Vale Association was founded in 1846 to protect the landscape and amenities of the Sid Valley.
• It owns and manages over 40 acres of land in the Upper Byes, Peaslands Knapp, Salcombe Regis and around the Valley.
• It owns and runs the nationally accredited Sidmouth Mu
seum, which attracts over 13,000 visitors each year.
• It maintains over 50 miles of footpaths, and patrols the River Sid to help keep it free of litter and pollution.
• It runs events, walks and talks and produces regular newsletters.
• The SVA relies on volunteers for all its work, but it still has to find a large amount of money to provide and maintain these facilities.
