East Sussex Reptile and Amphibian Society (ESRAS)

ESRAS was founded in 1982 under the original name of East Sussex Herpetology Society. Around about 1990 it was decided to rename the society the East Sussex Reptile and Amphibian Society, or ESRAS for short. ESRAS has a broad membership with specialists in snakes, lizards, tortoises, and invertebrates. All of our members are keen reptile enthusiasts, many keep and maintain different species of reptiles, amphibians and other exotic animals, and we love to come together to share in our passion for the scaley and slithery of the animal kind, and to make friendships and connections and have some fun!

We hold monthly meetings at Falmer Parish Hall, South Street, Falmer Village, Brighton, BN1 9PQ, on the first Wednesday of every month, from 7.30pm til 9ish. Please feel free to pop along any time, or contact any of the committee, (details on contact us), for more information. These are informal meet ups where we all get together to chat about our animals, share our experiences, bring our animals along, and have a cup of tea and a biscuit.
