Worthing Honey Collective in collaboration with South Downs Leisure
In 2017 South Downs Leisure and local social enterprise We Are FoodPioneers CIC have teamed up to host Worthing’s first-ever community-supported beehives as part of the Worthing Honey Collective. Two hives were placed on the roof at Splashpoint Leisure Centre in July 2018 and very soon after – three more hives were located at Worthing Leisure Centre to house native honeybees that are looked after by our volunteers under the watchful eye of our experienced beekeeper Tony. The first honey harvest was in 2019 once the hives had grown to full size and all income was used to promote this project within the local community.
