How you can help us

We need your help to maintain accurate records of the wildlife seen on the Reserve. You can let us know what you've seen in the following ways:

  • During Visitor Centre opening hours - please list the birds you have seen in the book at the Visitor Centre. We need records of all birds seen, not just the unusual ones.

  • At other times - please email the information to us at pagham.nr@westsussex.gov.uk, or call us on +44 (0)1243 641508.

Thank you to everyone who already helps. We will share this information with others via these web pages.
