ALL ROADS LEAD TO PATCHAM!
Patcham is not far away like, say, Patagonia. Admittedly Patagonia has mountains and nice views; but Patcham has convenience and nice science. See here how easy it is to get to us
Aware of cost-of-living worries, we have dropped the cost to you by keeping it local.
The address for almost the entire Hands-On Half-Term week is:
Scout Hut, by the Co-op, Old London Road, Patcham, Brighton BN1 8XR.*
The activities, for young people and parents, are largely free-with-collection. You don’t have to reserve places, but it would be advisable (and it’s charge-free).
To help you have a good day out:
Please make sure your children are not left anywhere unaccompanied!
The Scout HQ is right by the Co-op, to the south. The hut is a low building, easy to miss.
For refreshments, the Secret Garden (on map) is excellent for quality, and great for spaces, if it’s not raining. The bakery just before it does an excellent line in traditional cakes and savouries. The Co-op and the Post Office opposite also have food of the kind you would expect from a post office or a Co-op.
The map here shows the buses. The nearest train station is Preston Park, 2km down the London Road.
The advice always is to not drive, but walk, cycle, or take a bus if you can.
The streets are largely free of yellow lines, though finding a space can take a while, because of quite high usage.
At weekends the single yellow lines are free for parking.
