  Love going there, always fun atmosphere, especially good on a Summers evening with music . Absolutely brilliant idea that should be allowed to stay!

  I swim in the sea, enjoy the atmosphere and it's a great place to socialise 😍

  It's a proper community hub, not some generic money-maker for themselves. Unless the building is unsafe, how dare you go against the local community

  Sobo Beach is our local, and what an incredible local to have! ❤️ It’s so much more than just a beach bar; it’s a huge part of our community and what makes Southbourne so special. A place to meet friends, enjoy the beach, watch the sunset and bring people together. Losing it would be such a shame for the local area

  It’s something that adds happiness to the town. I’m tired of the council taking things away that the community wants to keep.

  We often go swimming at SOBO then for a coffee and whenever we have visitors from London they always ask to go to the cool bus beach bar. It is a great community hub and loved by all.

  Somewhere informal and welcoming year round, including dogs, kids, everyone. Lpts pf accessible activities and really bringing the vibe to the beach we desperately need, especially off season.

  I’ve spent many happy days watching the world go by from here. It’s close to work and genuinely gives back to the local community and would be a huge loss.
