Found GPS device on Brighton seafront near Palace Pier

I found a GPS device on the Brighton seafront near the Palace Pier at about 11:15 this morning. It was half-buried in the pebbles beside a blue puffer jacket, the screen flickering with a map and a contact sticker that reads 'Alex.' I picked it up, wiped off the salt spray, and checked the only visible label—a pink wrist strap with a name partial. It looks clearly used for outdoor biking or running. I left it with the lifeguard hut for safety, hoping the owner will spot this listing and claim it. It would mean a lot to them to have it back, given all the times it logged on routes along the coast.

Found sheet music near Brighton Pavilion.

Yesterday at 3:40 pm I found a folder of sheet music tucked behind a bench by the Brighton Dome. The pages are a bit crumpled and there is a pencil mark at the top, as if someone had been working through a recital piece. I brought it to the front desk at the Brighton Library to keep it safe, hoping the owner would recognize the music. It felt like a small piece of someone's practice and nerves before a show, left behind in the sea breeze. If this belongs to you, it's safe here until it's claimed.

Lost Student ID in Brighton

On a windy Thursday evening, around 9:15 p.m., I realized my student ID was missing after studying at the University of Brighton library near the seafront. I walked from the library toward the Brighton Dome, past the Royal Pavilion, and I felt a little exposed knowing my ID isn’t in my wallet. The card is plain, with my photo and name, but it means access to essential campus services and a sense of security while I’m out and about in Brighton. If anyone found it around North Laine or Churchill Square, please hold onto it for me.

Lost black handbag with passports and wallet

Hi, I have lost my black handbag yesterday 27th May 2026 around 5 p.m. near Preston Park Bus station while changing buses. In the handbag there were 5 German Passports (whole family), a small brown wallet with drivers licence, bank cards, ...., sun glasses and some other small things. We are travelling around in South West ​England and will leave Brighton tomorrow morning. We would be very grateful if anybody could help us! Thanks a lot in advance.

Grey Adidas sneakers, size 9, sentimental value

I lost my grey Adidas sneakers yesterday around 3pm, outside the Brighton Palace Pier on Madeira Drive. They’re size 9, grey mesh uppers with a white foam sole and the classic black three stripes. The left shoe has a noticeable scuff on the toe, and inside the tongue there’s a tiny red heart sticker I added for luck. They were a gift from my sister, so they mean a lot to me and I’d really like to get them back. If anyone spots them or picked them up, let me know so I can swing by and collect them.

Found concert ticket near Brighton Pier with VIP stamp

I found a concert ticket this afternoon around 3:15pm on the pavement outside the Brighton Palace Pier, just by the West Street entrance. It's a standard white ticket with blue text and a small gold VIP stamp in the corner. The print includes Row B, Seat 24 and the barcode is still readable, though the bottom edge is a bit creased. There's a tiny red VIP sticker stuck on it, which should be easy to spot. It mentions a show at Concorde 2 this Friday night. I hate the thought of someone missing it, so hopefully this helps them claim it back.
