DDAY 80 Beacon Lighting

D-Day 80 Beacon Lighting

Thursday 6 June 2024 at 9.15pm

To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the DDay landings, the Parish will be joining the chain of 1500 other Beacons lit across the UK, Channel Isles and Isle of Man. Beacons will also be lit in UK Oversea Territories and on the shorelines of Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword beaches in Normandy France.

The lights from the Beacons will represent the ‘light of peace’ that emerged from the darkness of war.

The Beacon will be lit on Harting Down at 9.15pm. Please join us on the hill or view from your garden or another local viewpoint.

Parish Council Elections – 4 May 2023

Make a Difference, Become a Parish Councillor

Are you passionate about your community?

Parish councils are the first tier of local government. Councillors typically live or work within their parish and are therefore well placed to understand local issues. They are the champions of their community and give residents a voice.

Being a councillor doesn’t have to take a lot of time, perhaps three hours a week on average. To find out more, including eligibility criteria, click on this link or contact Trish Walker, Clerk to the Parish Council, either by email clerk@harting-pc.gov.uk or by phone 01730 825201.

Nomination papers are available from Trish from 1 March 2023. Completed applications will need to be hand delivered to Chichester District Council, East Pallant House, Chichester by 4pm on 4 April 2023.
