We have a genuine challenge for anyone still leaving 'Universal Sandown Comments' on our posts:

👉 Give us one good reason why Sandown should not receive £3 million of investment and national recognition. Tell us (exactly) how this funding would not benefit our town and the entire Island.

We’ll wait.

And while you think about it, take a look at the attached Sandown Town of Culture Map. This is our blueprint for reviving Sandown and future-proofing our economy.

Launching in 2028, our Tide Turner Festival will bring life across four thematic zones.

We will unearth our 'Origin' by exploring everything from dinosaur footprints and Charles Darwin's momentous writings, to the manufacture of habitat-creating vertipools.

We will spark 'Curiosity' by using science and art to explore nature and imagination.

We will inspire 'Wonder' by recognising our deep carnival heritage and celebrating diverse community voices.

Finally, through 'Adaptation', we will engineer recovery through creativity, featuring many innovative partnerships.

If you are ready to fight for this future, share our map and help us Turn the Tide.
