About Pagham Harbour
Pagham Harbour is a glorious and peaceful nature reserve, one of the few undeveloped stretches of the Sussex coast. Watch Black-tailed Godwits and Little Egrets by day, then linger when skies are clear for an amazing sunset.
One of the highlights of summer at Pagham is our tern colony on Tern Island. The sound of chattering terns drifts across the languid waters mingled with the harsher squawks of the Black-headed Gulls. Common, Sandwich and Little Terns all nest on the island and it is a delight to watch these elegant seabirds fishing in the harbour, hovering briefly before diving into the water for small fish.

- Most importantly, you share our commitment to improving outcomes for men affected by prostate cancer and disease.
Why work for Prostate Scotland?
You’ll be joining a supportive, friendly team where your work will make a real difference. We value collaboration, compassion and continuous improvement, and we are committed to creating an inclusive and positive working environment.
