And now I am very happy to post……..

With a huge thanks we warmly welcome Justin Smith and Kirsten Harris on to your Committee.   Justin will be shadowing Mary Tibble (Treasurer) until the end of this year, when Mary steps down.   Kirsten will be shadowing Lin Harris (no relative) to take over as Sites Secretary. 

(Seriously though, we ALWAYS need you because without your continued support West Sussex DA wouldn’t be one of the best DAs!) 😁😁😁😁😁

 

So we are very pleased to announce your Committee for the year 2026/27 is as follows:

2025 - some of the best bits….

Welcome to our friendly community

You’ll get a great welcome at the West Sussex District Association of The Camping & Caravanning Club. We are a very active group with 12 Meets throughout the year including our 3-week famous THS arranged for 2026 and many more Meets already planned for 2027.

West Sussex has some of the most beautiful areas in the UK and we are so lucky to be able to arrange our weekend Meets in the beautiful South Downs and surrounding areas. If your idea of a weekend camping is to just sit and relax or to maybe join in the fun with like-minded campers, you’ll be made very welcome.

We hope to see you soon!
