About Us
Welcome to The Monday Group
Founded in 1961, we are a Registered Charity whose volunteer workers build and maintain stiles, gates and other wooden structures on public rights-of-way in the heart of Sussex, as well as working to keep them passable and clear of overgrowth.
We respond to requests from members of the public, land owners and local authorities to help provide easier access to our beautiful countryside. Our work can be split into two main categories: Structures and Clearance.
- Structures: Construction and installation of stiles, gates, causeways, steps and sign posts.
- Clearance: Repairing and clearing rights of way to make them more easily accessible
As the name suggests, we mostly operate on Mondays, though we now have a small team specialising in gates on Tuesday mornings too
2026 News - Facebook
As of January 2026, we have created a presence on Facebook. We are not sure how this will evolve but if Facebook is your thing, give it a try…
Report a Problem
Have you come across a stile, bridge or other structure on a footpath that you think needs replacing, or a path that is blocked or overgrown?
The Monday Group receives The King's Award for Voluntary Service
In November 2023 it was announced that The Monday Group had received the King’s Award for Voluntary Service. This award recognises outstanding work by local volunteer groups to benefit their communities. It is the highest award a local voluntary group can receive in the UK and is equivalent to an MBE.
