Lancing Beach Green latest 18th February 2009 Residents may be interested to learn what is happening on Beach Green as it appears that things have gone somewhat quite.

Normally there are only one or two resident pairs of swans on Widewater but there has been a recent influx of swans due to the abundance of food being made available. This could have serious consequences as follows:-
Swans do however require fresh water so please stop feeding the swans and instead put out bowls of water.
