Food Waste Bin rollout by Arun
From April 2026, all councils in England – including Arun – will be legally required under the Environment Act 2021 to provide weekly food waste collections. This will take place alongside the fortnightly rubbish collection from a council-supplied 180 litre bin and continuation of the fortnightly dry mixed recycling collection.
The new contract will also continue to include small waste electrical and electrical equipment collections, a subscriber-based garden waste collections service and the introduction of recycling opportunities for items such as textiles, batteries and coffee pods.
In areas where it is physically not possible to have a wheeled rubbish bin for each resident, an alternative solution will be introduced.
Why is it changing?
Separating food waste collected from across the whole of West Sussex (including Arun) allows it to be recycled via anaerobic digestion into biofertiliser and energy. The biofertiliser will be used as fertiliser for farmers fields and the energy will power the plant, with any excess exported to the national grid to be used in homes.
When the changes will happen
New bins will start being delivered to households between January and March 2026. The new collection system of weekly food waste/fortnightly general waste is expected to begin shortly after Easter 2026. Once the start date and new collection rounds are confirmed, residents will be able to check their updated collection schedules in several ways:
- Arun District Council app – the easiest way to stay informed. Sign up with your postcode to receive collection reminders and helpful guidance
- Online postcode checker for new collection days (not currently available) – this will be available here once new rounds are finalised nearer to the introduction of new services
- Customer contact centre – call 01903 737754 if you don’t have access to online services
How to opt out or request more capacity
If you already have a 180-litre or smaller wheeled bin that you can use (a standard recycling bin is 240-litre) you can either contact Arun as soon as possible to tell them you don’t need a new bin delivered or wait for the new bin to be delivered and then tell Arun that your old bin can be collected and recycled once it’s empty.
If you live in a house with 5 or more people and think you will need a bin larger than 180-litres you can apply for an extra bin.
For more information and to apply for any of the options above, check your existing bin size then either scan the QR code below or visit https://www.arun.gov.uk/simpler-recycling or telephone 01903 737754.
Warm spaces in Arun
Warm Spaces are somewhere you can go to keep warm and enjoy some company. In some locations you will be able to get refreshments, take part in activities and access advice and information about local services.
We know that many people are feeling the pressure of increasing heating and living costs. Our warm spaces network aims to support residents across the district.
Every person has the right to be warm, that’s why our spaces are free.
Everyone is welcome and treated with dignity and respect.
Follow this link to find one near you.
Advice to private landowners from Arun
The Parish Council has been advised that Arun has had considerable success in preventing incursion onto Council property by caravans after installation of bunding (such as in the photo below). They have asked us to warn private landowners that this may lead to caravans looking for alternative fields and land so Arun are actively encouraging private landowners to look at the security of their fields etc.

Have your say on the future of local government in West Sussex
People in West Sussex can now have their say on the future of local government in the county.
West Sussex County Council is urging interested parties, including residents, businesses and organisations, to take part in government-run consultations open from today.
Views gathered in the consultations will influence ministers’ decisions on the way local government in West Sussex is reorganised and structured.
Details of the consultation are on government’s website here: Local government reorganisation in East Sussex and Brighton and Hove, and West Sussex
West Sussex County Council will take part in the consultation to express its own views on the proposals with its preference being for a single unitary authority for the whole of West Sussex.
Councillor Paul Marshall, Leader of West Sussex County Council, said: “All councils in West Sussex worked collaboratively to develop a shared business case that presented two options to government, both of which meet government criteria, reflect local needs, and are viable for reorganisation.
“Of the two, West Sussex County Council maintains that a single unitary authority delivers the best outcomes for residents, with less spending on council infrastructure, greater savings to reinvest in services, stronger financial stability, and continuity for vital services that support our most vulnerable people.”
In addition to the proposal for a one unitary option, the district and borough councils have stated a preference for a two unitary council option.
Cllr Marshall added: “While the option of two unitary authorities for the county is viable, I passionately believe that a single authority has the opportunity to engrain within its fabric a commitment to recognise the strength in the variety of different communities within our county and develop bespoke approaches to individual places. In short, one council does not mean a single way of doing things; rather it provides the capacity to work hyper-locally with sufficient resource to adapt delivery.
“Analysis from West Sussex councils shows that a single unitary authority could save around £48million per year, compared with £18.8million per year for two authorities. A single authority therefore means less money spent on overheads and more on services like children’s care, highways and community safety as well as waste collection, street cleansing, parks and open spaces.
“Our preferred option will have the resources and capacity to deliver services to local residents effectively and efficiently, while also having the flexibility to ensure local government is connected to local places in a way that responds to the needs of individual places.”
The options for a single unitary authority and two unitary authorities for West Sussex were presented to government in a shared business case developed by all councils in West Sussex.
Brighton & Hove City Council proposed a further option for five unitary authorities across Sussex that involves boundary changes within West Sussex. This proposal was developed independently and differs significantly from the two options proposed by West Sussex councils.
Cllr Marshall added: “We have concerns about Brighton & Hove City Council’s proposal for five unitary authorities across Sussex. It would fragment West Sussex, create duplication, and weaken partnerships with the NHS, police, and fire services. We do not support the proposal because we know from our own analysis that one of the proposed West Sussex councils, from day one, would not be financially viable and we cannot expose our residents to the risk of a failing council.”
Full details of the options are provided within the government’s consultations, which run until 11.59pm on Sunday 11 January 2026.
Once the consultations close ministers will consider all responses and decide which proposal, if any, to implement.
The decision rests entirely with national government and will be subject to Parliamentary approval.
The government consultation is available online and hard copies can be requested from West Sussex libraries.

County Council launches new specialist support hub for children and families
West Sussex County Council has launched a new initiative to deliver earlier, more effective psychological support for children, young people, and families.
The county council’s new Psychological Hub aims to help families stay together, support children through complex emotional and mental health challenges. It will bring together expert services under one umbrella and create safe, nurturing environments where every child can thrive.
The Psychological Hub unites a range of previously independent specialist services under one psychology-led leadership team and is accessed via healthcare referrals. This integrated model ensures that support is timely, coordinated, and tailored to individual needs. The hub will also feature therapy pods based at County Hall North in Horsham, providing dedicated spaces for therapeutic work in a calm and welcoming setting.
At its heart, the hub brings together two key support areas:
Restore, offering psychologically informed support and interventions for children and families, helping:
- Families stay together or reunite when safe to do so.
- Children with special educational needs and disabilities who are at risk of school placement breakdown or hospitalisation due to mental health needs.
- Children experiencing, self-harm, or mental health conditions that may lead to hospitalisation.
- Children displaying harmful behaviours.
Attach, providing specialist psychological support for:
- Children in care and care leavers.
- Unaccompanied asylum-seeking children.
- Families in kinship arrangements, where children are cared for by someone they know and trust.
For more information, visit the Psychological Hub’s dedicated webpage.

Training on defibrillators and CPR for parish

Walberton cycle path consultation 2025

There will be the opportunity on Saturday 29th November to go and look at paper plans in Walberton Pavilion between 1pm and 3pm and ask questions about them.

Blood pressure monitors available to borrow
You can now borrow potentially life-saving blood pressure monitors free of charge from all 36 libraries in West Sussex.
High blood pressure (or hypertension) is a leading cause of heart attacks, strokes and other diseases, but it is a treatable condition and early detection is key.
The easy-to-use blood pressure monitoring kits can be borrowed for up to three weeks by local library members and used at home to check blood pressure daily.
The kits come with a guide on how to measure blood pressure, interpret the results, and a diary to log them. For low and high blood pressure readings, people are encouraged to contact their GP for further advice and treatment. Further information to support being healthy is also provided in the kit.
The initiative is a partnership between West Sussex County Council’s public health and library services and NHS Sussex, with the aim of increasing the detection of undiagnosed hypertension.
Often called ‘the silent killer’ as it usually has no symptoms, high blood pressure can only be detected via a blood pressure check, which is quick and painless.
For many people, there may not be a single cause, but reducing your risk through being a healthy weight, minimising your salt intake, being physically active, drinking within recommended guidelines and stopping smoking can all help reduce your blood pressure. Being aware of your blood pressure and checking it regularly is an important way that you can take charge of your own health and wellbeing.
Dr Suneeta Kochhar, Clinical Lead for Cardiovascular Disease Prevention at NHS Sussex, said: “Having raised blood pressure is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, strokes and chronic kidney disease. Up to a third of people in the UK may be unaware that they have raised blood pressure, this is because most people do not have any symptoms. This means that the only way to detect this is by having a blood pressure check. A blood pressure check can be done at your GP surgery, local community pharmacy or through initiatives like the library blood pressure monitor loans in West Sussex.”
From East Grinstead to East Preston and Southwater to Southwick, find your nearest library.
Not a library member yet? It’s free and easy to join if you live, work or study in the county.

VE Day 80
On 8 May 2025, we mark the historic 80th anniversary of VE Day, with our parish coming together to celebrate 80 years of peace since the end of World War II in Europe, that so many millions paid the ultimate sacrificed to achieve. VE Day 80 is a tribute to those who fought for the freedom we all enjoy today.
At 9am residents of the Parish and beyond are invited to gather around the flagpole at Walberton Playing field to listen to the VE Day Proclamation being read as the VE Day 80 flag is raised. At 6.30pm, the bells of the Church will ring out in unison with cathedrals and churches throughout the nation. This will be followed by a bangers and mash supper and quiz in the village hall. ( See details on the poster).
At 9.30pm the parish will light our ‘lamps of peace‘ beside the flagpole, joining with over one thousand beacons and hundreds of Lamp Lights of Peace which will shine throughout the United Kingdom, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, with the flames from them both, representing the ‘light of peace’ that emerged from the dreadful darkness of war, as we sing the great British Hymn ‘I Vow To Thee My Country‘, standing side by side in gratitude, honouring the many sacrifices that secured our freedom.
We encourage everyone to take part in this anniversary providing a day of joy, reflection, and celebration, reaffirming our commitment to world peace, ensuring future generations understand and cherish its value.
“Together, we honour the past and celebrate a future built on unity, hope, love and peace”.
