Sovereign Harbour ASDA was the first to trade into this area as out of Town Hypermarket, located in what then known as "The Crumbles".
ASDA sit on a vast valuable land located in a prime position.
The only problem with Sovereign Harbour ASDA is that they have had a series of changed Managers, at one time, so often in fact that in one year The Manager of Brighton ASDA at the Brighton Marina was also the Manager of Eastbourne ASDA.
ASDA Head Office in Leeds no such interest in ASDA Eastbourne and neither the Area Manager for ASDA.
While around Eastbourne ASDA a large Community of nearly 10,000 residents was built, ASDA Head Office ignored completly this Community which is located in Sovereign Harbour - nearly 6,500 Harbour residents live in the North Harbour and nearly 3,500 residents live in the South Harbour.
1.5 Million Shoppers visit Sovereign Harbour Retail Park each year.
Sovereign harbour have the largest marina in Europe - nearly 1,700 crafts.
Very busy Multi-Screen Cinema located within Sovereign harbour Retail Park.
Eastbourne ASDA still called themselved ASDA in the Crumbles.
Sovereign Harbour ASDA took no interest to be involved with Sovereign harbour Community.
It is hard to beleive that Mr. Sam ( Sam Walton the founder of WalMart ) will turn in his grave to think that one of his outlets have turned its back on its Community where valuable money is been generated.
It is time for Mr. Mike Duke the President & CEO of WatMart Parent Company of ASDA to call the shot and see that his team in the UK lead by Mr. Andy Clarke and his team in Leeds take an interest in Sovereign Harbour Community.
For a start, Sovereign Harbour Community need a Community Library which can be located within the empty premises of Eastbourne ASDA.
Second - for Sovereign Harbour ASDA to be involved with Sovereign Harbour Community.
There is so much ASDA can do and we all crying out for help.
Eastbourne ASDA in Sovereign Harbour ( Not the Crumbles ) maybe smaller than Brighton ASDA but the difference is ASDA Eastbourne is located in the Heart of Sovereign harbour Community while Brighton ASDA is not even in the centre of Brighton.
There is enough land for Sovereign Harbour ASDA to develop and bring in more employment in the area by establishing a Fast Food Complex by the round about to the entrance of Sovereign Harbour Retail Park.
I appeal again to Mr. Andy Clarke and his ASDA Management Team in Leeds to come down and see the situation at Sovereign Harbour.
Your ASDA Help to Sovereign Harbour Residents will be much appreciated.
Thank you

Sovereign Harbour - A Piece of Haven
Waking up this morning on my 70th birthday - I often wounder, the question my friends in London ask me... What is like living in Sovereign Harbour.
eight years flew by since I purchased my second home in Sovereign Harbour and every morning I count my blessings.
I maybe lucky to have found such a piece of haven on this earth.
My flat overlook the beach and from my balcony I can see the whole of Pevensey Bay up to the Hill of Hastings and to my right, the entrance to Sovereign Harbour with its many Sailing Boats, Fishing Boats and even expensive Yachts go in and out from this stretch of causeway.
Me and my wife, so long as we have our health, we thank the above for letting us enjoy the good sunshine most of the year round because Eastbourne Coast is officialy the sunniest part of the United Kingdom.
Over the years we have made many friends in the harbour.
Sovereign Harbour is small community of nearly 10,000 harbour residents.
As often the case, you see many new faces coming from all over the country to settle in this corner
of England.
Often, they are young families with children moving to the harbour in increasing number.
The Harbour is also home for those who took early retirement so, in this case, by in large, it is not like living in Eastbourne Town.
Life in the Harbour is very relaxed and you can walk for miles over clean spotless beaches and walkways.
If you want a piece of haven on this earth, come and join us in Sovereign Harbour - It will be, probably, the best time of your life.

Sovereign Harbour Retail Park Explained
Sovereign Harbour Retail Park until recently, it was known to the local as the Crumble.
Sovereign Harbour Retail Park is devided into two sections. ASDA 24 owned the land nearer to Pevensey Road while PRUPIM own the proper Retail Park and including the lands behind the Car Park up to the point where the land is devided by a pathway which separate it from the land owned by Carillion Plc ( The land owners of Sovereign Harbour Marina ).
Sovereign Harbour Retail Park is located about 3.5 miles outside Eastbourne on Pevensey Bay coastal road.
PRUPIM is among the top 20 global estate investment manager, part of M&G group of companies which is the asset management arm of Prudential Plc in the UK & Europe.
PRUPIM owned the property in Sovereign Harbour Retail Park which is sitting on land, for so long empty, waiting to be filled with such things as Fast Food to complement the busy Multi-Screen Cinema. Also there is enough land to develop a leisure centre to incorporate an Indoor Bowling Centre and maybe to include a Boutique Hotel.
It is now time for PRUPIM to look again at Sovereign Harbour Retail Park with nearly 1.5 million shoppers who visit the Retail Park annualy and, together with ASDA 24 with its vast empty available land waiting to be commercialy developed further in order to bring more life into Sovereign Harbour where nearly 10,000 harbour residents live.
My call to Eastbourne Borough Council Planning Committee - please wake up and encourage PRUPIM and ASDA to develope their empty land in order to bring the match needed employment to the people of Eastbourne and the surrounding area.

Sovereign Harbour need Children Activities
About two years ago I invited Eastbourne Scouts and the local Girls Guide & Brownies to set up New Activity based at Sovereign Harbour. A meeting was held at the Haven School in the South Harbour attended by the Haven School Head Teacher, East Sussex County Councillor Mr. David Elkin, representatives from the Girls Guide and Brownies, the eastbourne Scouts, representative from Sovereign Harbour Residents Association and by invitation, one family who live in Sovereign harbour came to put there case forward.
I must admit it was a waste of time and effort from my part. Eastbourne Scouts and the local Girls Guides and Brownies in collusion with each others had already decided that they do not want to extend there activities to Sovereign Harbour putting an obstacle in the way of progress by saying that they do not have enough leaders.
This maybe true but they do not have a dynamic program to train leaders, as I understand. Also they stated that Sovereign Harbour do not have a location where such activity can be curried out. At the time, The Haven School also objected to having such activity taken place on there premises stating that there facilities are already exhausted. However, they did find the time and space to accomodate present activities for a new group of residents taking place every Fridays but not to accomodate activities related to a New Scouting Cubs or Girls Guide and Brownies in the Harbour.
I do appeal to both movements to look again at Sovereign Harbour. I am willing to help again in re-ignitting the desire to establish such activities in the Harbour.
It is time those iconic movements will advance with the time and look again to expend in helping New Communities such as the one in Sovereign Harbour. Lets wait and see if they listen !!!

Sovereign Harbour - understand the Community
Sovereign Harbour is devided into four distinct areas, each one is different from the other.
The South Harbour is the first part when the harbour started beeing developed. The area is accessed through Atlantic Drive following the direction from Langney Point where Eastbourne Promenade end at the Water Treatment. This Building is not within Sovereign Harbour boundary but the neighbouring Mortelo Tower is. The South Harbour is populated by nearly 3,500 residents housed in blocks of flats but town houses exist in the South Harbour but on the otherside of Atlantic Drive backing to Langney Point. The Second part of the Harbour is the central marina where the Harbour Waterfront is located surrounded by high rise flats some of those flats are very exclusive with prices in excess of £750,000.
Further on is the North Marina - the newest development with its open spaces, detached houses, exclusive mensions with its own gardens leading to private jetties for the mooring of yachts and expensive water crafts. The North Marina also boast about 1.5 km of private beaches and walkways. Life in the North Harbour is very different to the rest of the Harbour. This is where about 6.500 residents live.
The fourth area is the Commercial where Sovereign Harbour Retail Park is situated. dominated by ASDA 24 and a very popular multi-screen cinema.
Sovereign Harbour have also a fifth area for servicng, repairs and storage of Marine Crafts. House prices in Sovereign Harbour varies according to location and type of accomodations, some of which are valued to ver £1.5 million. In the past, they are many developers fighting to fill empty properties - this is where the perception still linggering on. I am pleased to say, many of the empty properties are now beeing filled by young families moving from various part of the country to make there home in Sovereign Harbour. I hope one day, you will come and join us in order to build a good family life for the future of your children in Sovereign Harbour.

Sovereign Harbour need a Community Library
For over four years, I have been asking East Sussex County Council to establish a Community Library in Sovereign Harbour based inside ASDA 24 in Sovereign Harbour Retail Park and manned by local volenteers residents seven days a week. What ESCC in there wisdom did and to shut me up, they gave the nearly 10,000 residents of Sovereign Harbour a mobile library which call for two hours once a week and accomodate only three people. Is that what the 10,000 residents of Sovereign Harbour deserve ?? ESCC argued with me in the past and trying to put the view that Sovereign Harbour do not need a Community Library to be located in ASDA 24. They also said they don't have the money to start a Community Library in Sovereign Harbour, yet they spend a fortune renovating and refurbushing other libraries in East Sussex. They also said to me that the residents of the harbour can use other facilities in the nearby libraries. I ask again WHY??... no further comments. I presume, I am a single voice in the harbour shouting in the void. Please follow me now on Twitter.... samsweiry. Thank you
