The South Downs Planetarium and Science Centre in Chichester is a Registered Educational Charity focused on science education for all. Visitors can learn about Astronomy, Associated Sciences, Space Exploration and the beauty of the night sky in our 96 seat Dome. The organisation is run by a dedicated team of Volunteers and welcomes over 16,000 visitors each year from schools, universities and the general public to our Public Shows. Our aim is to bring the wonders of the Universe to all ages from 6 to 106 years old.
Our Volunteers come from all different backgrounds and it is not necessary for new Volunteers to have knowledge in Astronomy. There are a number of practical ways that you can be involved including... Supporting the learning during our School and Student visits. Welcoming the public to our Public Shows. Administration & Practical duties. Technical and Engineering support. The Planetarium is a very busy and exciting environment with an opportunity to learn and share knowledge with our visitors. Our volunteers usually work around 5 hours on a regular basis once a week, but this can be flexible.

The Planetarium is usually open during the day Monday to Friday during term-time for School, University and pre-booked group visits. We are also open to the general public on most Friday evenings and Sunday afternoons. During the School holidays we are open to the public in the afternoon or evening on certain days, but not every day. Occasionally we hold Observing Evenings on the South Downs, not more than six times per year.
