Sussex is more than just a county — it’s a living community shaped by the people who call it home.

A history of independence, resilience and creativity runs through our coastal towns and rural communities. This landscape has shaped generations and now it is home to over 1.4 million people whose lives are rooted in Sussex.

Yet, today, we feel disconnected from the decisions that determine our future. Trust in politics is low. Misinformation spreads faster than facts. And many no longer believe that they have a real say.

Our campaign has a clear mission:

1. Engage

   We connect people across Sussex to understand the challenges we face and why they matter to our communities

2. Inform

   We share clear, accessible content grounded in evidence so people can make sense of local decisions and their impact

3. Empower

   We bring people together to build stronger communities, find practical solutions and turn discussion into action

Our vision is for a revival of local democracy in Sussex and the renewal of the values of civility and respect in our public debate.

From our medieval revolts to our modern reforms, we have always stood for a spirit of solidarity and common sense.

Now it’s time for us to stand together and write the next chapter of Sussex’s story.

You can tell them all that we stand or fall for Sussex by the sea.
