Apron helps local communities thrive by creating vibrant natural spaces where people come together to learn, share and grow. We offer intergenerational arts and crafts workshops, cultural heritage events and inclusive pop-up sessions in venues across our town.
The Apron Community Garden in Shoreham-By-Sea offers a diverse range of inclusive community sessions, workshops, events, and volunteering opportunities.
Apron Light Parade Gathering
Join us for a gentle gathering of lights at our community garden in Buckingham Park!
Instead of a parade this year, the garden will be illuminated with lanterns, and local choirs will sing Imbolc and nature-inspired songs. We will also lead everyone in singing Penny Stone’s beautiful First Light together.
