Eastbourne Suzuki (EMC) has proudly handed over its 8th Suzuki vehicle to the Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team, continuing a long-standing partnership that supports vital, life-saving work.

This latest vehicle, a Suzuki Vitara Motion Mild Hybrid Automatic in Ice Greyish Blue with a Cosmic Black roof, will help the team patrol Beachy Head and the surrounding areas. As a result, volunteers can continue to respond quickly and safely to those in need.

Supporting the Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team

For nearly a decade, EMC has supported the Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team. This ongoing partnership ensures volunteers have reliable transport every day of the year.

Importantly, since November 2025, the previous EMC vehicle has already been used in 53 interventions at Beachy Head. This shows how essential each Suzuki vehicle is to the team’s work.

In addition, these vehicles allow the team to reach remote areas in all weather conditions. This is critical when time and access can make a difference.

“We are incredibly grateful to you and your team for standing with us. Your generosity doesn’t just provide us with a car; it provides the reliability we need to remain stationed at the cliffs in all weathers, ensuring we can be there for those who need us most.”

Why Suzuki vehicles are the right choice

The Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team continues to rely on Suzuki vehicles for their daily work. They offer strong performance, efficiency, and reliability.

Over time, these vehicles have proven ideal for both road and coastal terrain. Furthermore, they provide the space needed for equipment and patrol duties.

A continued commitment from EMC

With the delivery of the 8th Suzuki vehicle to the Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team, EMC reaffirms its commitment to the local community.

Year after year, this partnership has grown stronger. EMC remains dedicated to supporting organisations that make a real difference across Eastbourne and beyond.
