Sussex Web Design Company Partners Up With Sussex Wildlife Trust – Sounds Like We Are In For More Tweets!


Fresh Egg well known for their fabulous Web Design and Search Engine Optimisation initiatives have just become a sliver corporate partner of the Sussex Wildlife Trust. Our Managing Director, Adam Stafford decided to get involved with the work of the Trust as he is so passionate about the natural world and in particular the wildlife of West Sussex, which is shown in his dedication to tracking and photographing deer, and keeping his Deer Diary website current!

The Sussex Wildlife Trust was actually formed back in 1961 and is now the biggest conservation organisation which is dedicated to preserving the natural heritage of Sussex.  The county has an enormous diversity and range of habitats from dramatic coastline, grazing marshes, the chalk hills of the South Downs to internationally rare heathland.  The aim of the Sussex Wildlife Trust is to conserve the Sussex landscape, wildlife, and its habitats, and to use its knowledge and expertise to help the people of Sussex to understand, enjoy and preserve them.It’s amazing that there are now 25 reserves through Sussex and membership of the Trust allows Fresh Egg and all its employees access to them all.

The motivation behind Adam getting involved with the fantastic work of the Trust came about for a number of various reasons.  He met the Burrell family at the 3,500-acre Knepp Castle estate recently.Although the estate was once a traditional arable and dairy farm, it is being rebranded under the guidance of Charles Burrell, who since the age of 21 has had the stewardship of the whole estate.  Internal gates and fences have been torn down and the dairy cows have been replaced with a herd of Old English Longhorn cattle, introduced Exmoor ponies, Fallow deer and Tamworth pigs, all set loose to roam at will. Adam admits he found that a brave and inspiring decision and the Estate’s fields now hum with insects and birds including skylarks, whitethroats, blackcaps, nightingales, stonechats, woodlark and buzzards as well as several very rare butterflies, beetles, bees and bats.

Seeing that passion in action, Adam decided that we should get involved as a company too.  That certainly chimes with the Fresh Egg ethos of “giving something back” to the community.  And what better thing could there be to give back than the wildlife and natural beauty of Sussex?  We’re pleased to be members and involved in such a worthy cause, and the staff have no doubt that sometime in the near future we’ll be talked into clearing culverts, planting trees or counting skylarks!
