Firewood on sale at The Brighton Woodstore, Circus Street, Brighton, East Sussex, the home of the Brighton and Hove Wood Recycling Project. The project is a social enterprise (ie: non profit making), collecting waste timber and building materials from major national and regional building and construction companies - the first aim of the project being to keep waste timber for ending up in landfill sites, being burnt or sent for woodchipping. The collected wood is then recycled by voluntary workers, many drawn from socially disadvantaged groups such as ex-prisoners and the long-term unemployed - with the second aim of the project helping such people gain skills and work experience to enable them to move back into the labour market. The end products are reusable timber for DIY, gardening and building projects and manufactured gift products - for sale to the public at the store and assisting in the fight against global warming by saving new trees being required for these purposes. The experience and success at Brighton has meant that other Community Wood Recycling Social Enterprises (CWREs) have since been set up around the country under the guidance of the National Community Wood Recycling Project (NCWRP) also based in Brighton.

Statue of Sir Bobby Robson, Portman Road, opposite the home ground of Ipswich Town Football Club. Robson managed Ipswich for 13 years from 1969 to 1982 with consistent First Division success. He guided Ipswich to win the FA Cup in 1978 beating Arsenal 1 goal to nil, followed in 1981 by victory in the UEFA Cup. This success for the small Suffolk Club meant Robson was given the ultimate job of managing the England team, which he did from 1982 to 1990 - a very similar feat to that of Alf Ramsey. Prior to his managerial career Robert William Robson was also a successful player, with his club teams including Fulham and West Bromwich Albion. He also won 20 caps for England. After the England job Robson had many years of success managing in Europe - with clubs including PSV Eindhoven, FC Porto and Barcelona. He returned to manage the club he supported in his youth, Newcastle United from 1999 to 2004. His battle with cancer over the years spurred him to form the Bobby Robson Foundation which has raised over 2 million pounds to combat the disease. The sculpture by artist Sean Hedges-Quinn was unveiled by Robson himself in 2002.
