Worthing Downlanders are an organisation dedicated to supporting and defending the ownership and control of all Worthing Council's existing downland estate, and supporting the management of this downland estate for public purposes, free of built development.

These public purposes include: the maximum open public access to all this land, the enhancement of the wildlife resources of this land, especially with a view to restoration of the damaged down pasture mantle, and supporting sustainable farming initiatives.

Worthing Downlanders will also be supporting all campaigns to save any green belt land from development.
