Greenpeace relies on individual people like you to fund their work. To protect their independence, they don't take any money from governments or corporations.  At such a critical time for our planet, Greenpeace needs our support more than ever. 

You are cordially invited to the Greenpeace Exhibition in Lewes (running from 1st August 2025-10th August 2025 at the Star Brewery Gallery) celebrating nearly 50 years of Greenpeace in Lewes, and the Satellite Events, listed below.  If you are inspired by the Exhibition and/or Events, please donate today via the Community Giving QR code below, to help Greenpeace UK continue to fight the climate and nature emergencies. Together with your support, we can keep fossil fuels in the ground and our forests and oceans healthy.

We also take this opportunity to extend our heartfelt thanks to Mr John May and other personnel from the original Greenpeace Office in Lewes, which was located at Temple House 25 & 26 High Street, Lewes, for arranging this Exhibition to remind us of the important contribution which Lewes has made in the peaceful pursuit of Climate Justice.  It was significant that the Lewes Greenpeace office was the Headquarters for Greenpeace International from 1982 until 1989, a very busy and turbulent time in the formation of Greenpeace International today.

Thank you! Greenpeace Lewes Group
