About Sussex Air

Sussex Air is a partnership of local councils and key organisations across Sussex, united by a common goal: to improve air quality and protect the health of our communities. Air pollution doesn’t stop at district boundaries — that’s why we work collaboratively, sharing data, expertise, and solutions that make a real difference across the region.

Since 2000, Sussex Air has been at the forefront of monitoring air quality, raising awareness, and supporting innovative initiatives to reduce pollution. We provide accurate, real-time air quality information to the public, schools, businesses, and policymakers — helping everyone make informed decisions for healthier living.

Whether it’s supporting local action plans, encouraging sustainable travel, or delivering public health campaigns, our mission is clear: cleaner air for everyone in Sussex.

The aim of the partnership is to assist partners to comply with their statutory Local Air Quality Management (LAQM) duties and to contribute to improving air quality and health in Sussex.
The objectives of the partnership are to pool limited resources to provide:

• a co-ordinated and high standard air quality evidence base
•  information and advice, to the public
• co-ordination and delivery of strategic work and projects to improve air quality in Sussex.
