| Founded in 1952, Friends of Lewes is the Lewes Civic Society, a volunteer-led registered charity with over 400 members. Our mission is to conserve and enhance the key aspects of the town – its history, distinctive buildings and the natural environment. Our activities centre on both the Built Environment, and the Natural Environment which includes the Lewes Urban Arboretum. This is a town-wide arboretum project managed by the Trees Committee of Friends of Lewes and is an internationally recognised level 1 accredited Arboretum with ArbNet. About us – who we are and what we do |
