Unfortunately, despite our explicit ban on open flames on our green spaces, there has been a fire in Havenstoke Park. The fire brigade attended and there’s been significant damage to the grass and new football pitches. If you saw anything first hand or have any information about what happened please let us know. Though it’s now contained, it could have been significantly worse under the current circumstances.

All vehicles have now departed from Havenstoke Park. Our team and some volunteers are out there tidying up right now. Thank you for your support and a big thanks to Chichester Police for their assistance.
