What do we mean when we describe chalk grassland as a rainforest in miniature?

At 10am we'll be live on the SDNPA Facebook page with @ButterflyDan who will be taking us through the chalk grassland 'rainforest' & the special role of plants in this habitat.

Today's #PlasticFreeJuly post comes from one of our team who says "I was a Tupperware Rep in the 70's and demonstrated how to use the rice saver. Also for soaking bread for a bread pudding and salads! I still have mine."
Can you beat 50 years for the oldest piece of Tupperware?!

Help protect nature and wildlife by taking your litter home, sticking to campsites and encouraging others to do the same. When debris is left on a daily basis, it takes our rangers and local teams away from vital conservation work.

Thanks for your help in spreading the word.

Wow! Well done to the 2019/20 Year 11's @stpaulscatholic #BurgessHill. Before lockdown, they completed 2 sponsored walks, & some bake sales, & they raised a phenomenal £5,448.74 for @ChestnutSussex! We're so grateful! Your efforts will make such a difference #Thankyou! #Sussex

Before the bluebells disappear, Emily M asked to see them blooming at Killerton. It looks like we’re not the only ones who admire these flowers.

Where should we venture next?

[West Sussex Fire & Rescue Service @WestSussexFire]

Last night our crews from @BognorFire @ChichesterFire and @LittlehamptonFS along with the Command Support Unit from @WSFRSHHeath attended a fire in a property in Longford Rd, Bognor.
Crews used two high pressure hose reels and a safety jet to extinguish the fire in the basement.

Did you know swifts spend just three months of the year in the UK?

The arrive in May from central Africa before departing in July. They eat, drink, sleep and mate on the wing, only landing to breed.

Let us know if you spot any.
