Friends of Heene Cemetery

Friends of Heene Cemetery are a group of reliable and dedicated volunteers who have been working together for 3 years to improve the green space known as Heene Cemetery. We aim to promote the health and wellbeing of the residents in the area by encouraging them to volunteer and carry out both environmental improvement and practical conservation. A sensitive balance of protecting, researching and sharing the heritage within the walls is also part of our work and we aim to encourage more community groups, educational bodies and environmental interest groups to visit and take part in our work. We meet twice a week on a Tuesday and Saturday afternoon from 2pm-4pm to carry out light conservation work and break for tea/coffee and biscuits and a chat about our progress. We hold quarterly committee meetings where future planning and development is discussed and agreed. We also plant and maintain Plot 30 on Worthing Seafront through Worthing Town Centre Initiative
