THE HASSOCKS FIELD SOCIETY

….Aims to encourage interest in the countryside and care for the environment through a programme of talks, walks and fundraising coffee mornings.

TALKS: We have a programme of Monday evening meetings with speakers, twice a month from September to March. Talks cover all aspects of wildlife and countryside. Also local history, travel and places of interest in and around Sussex.

COFFEE MORNINGS: Two coffee mornings are arranged each year, providing an opportunity for members to meet and socialise, while at the same time raising funds for a local charity or project.
