'New Transition Mid Sussex website.
The new Transition Mid Sussex website is nearly here. We've had a few technical issues and so it's been delayed slightly. We're working hard to get it live as soon as possible. Please watch this space and look out for an email from the Yahoo group letting you know that we're live!
Transition Mid Sussex Groups - Your chance to get involved.
Thank you to everyone who made it along our `group forming' in November. It was a really inspirational day and there were lots of ideas and enthusiasm flying about from all involved! We want to maintain that momentum now, so if you were or more importantly weren't able to make it on the day, this is your next opportunity to get involved and help Transition Mid Sussex move forward and help shape your local area.
Although we generated more groups on the day, to keep it manageable, we're going to kick off the New Year with the four shown below. Please get in touch with the co-ordinator and they will help arrange the next step, whether that's a phone chat, idea sharing, email reply or perhaps a meet-up to chat through options etc.
We're waiting for your email!

Welcome to Transition Mid Sussex
Thank you for visiting Transition Mid Sussex. We're currently in the process of building our new website, so please watch this space.
Transition Mid Sussex is definitely gathering pace now and with our very successful 'Hand's on Transition' day on Saturday 29th November, we saw the start of something really positive. The energy, enthusiasm and ideas that resulted from that short meeting will hopefully grow and grow and really drive Transition Mid Sussex forward. People are taking small but meaningful actions for local transport, energy, education, food and many others. This is the start of something 'big', so please sign up to our mailing list or download our new Winter programme and get involved! Many thanks to all of the people who made it on our 'Hand's on Transition' day.
