Shoreham Port

18/06/2026

Heading to the beach this weekend? Join us for a day by the sea and help keep our coastline clean!

Before settling in to enjoy the sunshine, we’re inviting our community to take part in a beach clean at Southwick Beach, as part of Sustainability Week 2026. It’s a simple way to make a big difference to our environment, and a great activity for children to get involved in too.

There’ll be prizes to be won, plenty of fresh air, and the chance to meet others who care about our coastline.

You don’t need to bring anything; gloves, bags and litter pickers will be provided. All you need to bring is yourselves.

📅 Day: Saturday 20 June 2026
⏰ Time: 10am – 12pm
📍 Meeting point: Port Kitchen

We were proud to officially commission our first electric HGV (e-HGV) at Shoreham Port this week, a major milestone in our long-term decarbonisation strategy made possible in part by both the Depot Charging Grant and Zero Emission Truck Grant. Thank you to the Department for Transport (DfT), United Kingdom for the ongoing partnership.

With six battery packs, a range of up to 300 km, rapid 2.5-hour charging via a 250 kW DC charger, and an impressive 666 hp / 2,400 Nm of torque, it represents a step-change in capability and sustainability. Our second e-HGV arrives later this year, with further fleet expansion plans in 2027.
