  We walk our dogs everyday and enjoy the safe community and activities at Sobo. They do so much for our area and have been an asset to Southbourne.

  It’s a great way for the community to get together!! I’ve lived in Bournemouth my whole life and Sobo beach means a lot to people. Somewhere where people come together and connect. Don’t destroy anything else!!

  Sobo Beach is the heart of our community! ❤️🌊 It offers so much to our area — a place to enjoy ourselves, socialise, exercise, relax, work, and connect with nature. It brings people together and plays such an important role in our community and wellbeing. We love what Sobo Beach offers and the way it is currently being run. It’s a special place that means so much to so many people, and we want to preserve its unique atmosphere, character, and community spirit. Please don’t change what makes

  I go there for coffee with my dog at least 3 times a week, it’s my go-to beach venue for food with the kids and the place I take my friends to when they visit from Kent- the staff are so friendly, the dancing is good on Sundays! It’s great for meeting people.

  Community, bringing locals together ❤️

  Open year round, welcoming to all, inclusive, affordable unlike venues such as Rockwater which are financially beyond the reach of most local families. Lots of community groups, support for people, environmentally aware and active as well. They go beyond just being a business.

  Sobo Beach is where I can work, catch up with friends, support local groups and also spend fun times with family. My kids have built such great memories there. It will be a significant loss to so many, especially during the winter months where it really helps winter blues / well being.

  I love a swim and a glass of wine and meeting friends…at SOBO you can do all these, everyone’s welcome, there is no booking system and enough space for all… and our dogs. Thank you

  Its a cultural gem in this community greater than the sum of its parts. There is nothing like this place in bournemouth and should be cherished. The backlash would be profound if we lost this space to connect. Please as a human protect this rare joyous place.
