It’s my local beach bar, and I’ve popped in many times for a coffee, enjoyed the parties, and joined many friends from work for the annual silent disco and beach yoga sessions hosted by Sobo Beach as part of the Wellness Festival. It’s a special place filled with lovely memories.

This is a staple of our sobo community. We love this venue as it’s a great place to walk to in any weather, always a great welcome and a really relaxing vibe. A perfect destination for bringing our dogs to. The wellbeing events are amazing and great to be able to go for a dip, it’s a safe space and a safe place to leave things. Moreover, the team have done a magnificent job creating this community. BCP, why would you want to break up and spoil this amazing part of our beach life?

It offers so much for the community. We often have a drink here over the summer and I love seeing the area thriving with community activities.

I have grave concerns about the site being left empty. Sobo Beach has a proven record and great community support. These types of businesses should be encouraged in the local area.

The bus has such a cool vibe. Sheltered if you want it or sit in the sun too. If it's not struggling then don't change it . Whenever I e been it's always been busy.

Pls defer voting till you have heard from the community.... SOBO Beach is an established, integral and essential part of the local community.

It’s got a special place in my heart, the amount of friendly people that gather there including the staff matter a lot. I hope they are able to renew their license

We visit Sobo at every opportunity, it’s our local, our go to, our social, our home. It’s where we go to enjoy a drink, a bite to eat, we take visitors there, our 1 year old son plays in the sand, we attend the events, the beach cleans, the sea dips, if Sobo goes, we’ll be heartbroken

Community and atmosphere. It makes Southbourne beach unique and a fabulous place to be. It reflects the people who live here and has revitalised our little bit of beach.

Sobo Beach is the heart of Southbourne beach It’s a great Community and a fantastic place for people of all ages to socialise. The atmosphere is truly amazing and the beach wouldn’t be the same without it there, both during the summer and winter. I live at the top of the cliff top and use it frequently. It really is the heart beat of BH6.

It's a great place for a morning coffee or an evening beer, it serves great food, it's such a popular meeting place to relax, for what reason would anyone want to remove it.

It’s at the heart of the community- I live in southbourne and train at the life saving club and walk my dogs past it daily - whatever time of year and weather it’s open and provides a it’s a welcoming place to shelter, unwind, relax, make memories with friends and family and supports so many local Charities and activities
