  • Winter 2020/21 Newsletter
    East Sussex Hearing Winter 2020/21 Newsletter SEASONS GREETINGS! Our lovely new Eastbourne Centre! As winter approaches we are hopeful that the New Year will bring good news for everyone… turn over to find out more about our hopes and plans for 2021 Registered Charity No: 1101140 Hello from your CEO David Rowan Well, what an eventful year it has been. It started off like most New Year’s do, very quiet. Then, in mid-February we started to hear of cases of a new virus in China that was initially thought to be localised and similar to the SARS virus of 2003. It quickly became apparent that this was a completely different virus and far more infectious. Within a matter of weeks, the virus had spread beyond China and we ultimately ended up with the Coronavirus pandemic that has gone on to effect most, if not all countries in the world. We then went into our first 12-week lockdown and our Centre had to close its doors to the public for the very first time. All our outreach activities were cancelled including lipreading and sign language classes, support groups and our hearing aid maintenance service. However, a skeleton staff continued to work from the office providing vital support and information to clients by telephone, text and email. We also started our new “hearing aid batteries by post” service which we have continued to provide ever since, and will carry on doing until a more ‘normal’ life returns. However, this year has not been all doom and gloom. It was towards the end of the first lockdown that we realised we wouldn’t be able to resume our classes and equipment demonstrations from St Leonards Road because of the new covid distancing requirements and so we took the 2 plunge and moved into new, bright, comfortable and spacious premises in Chantry House, just a short walk from St Leonards Road.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by East Sussex County Council [ASC 021]
    Written evidence submitted by East Sussex County Council [ASC 021] • How has Covid-19 changed the landscape for long-term funding reform of the adult social care sector? The challenges facing the adult social care market prior to the pandemic are well documented and, in many cases, have been brought into sharp focus over the last 12 months. Local Authority published rates; contract arrangements (e.g. block arrangements); commissioning approaches (e.g. strategic partners) and CCG funding agreements including Better Care Fund allocations are all key funding reform considerations which sit alongside the necessity to offer choice, personalised care and high quality, safe services. Residential and nursing care There are 306 registered care homes in East Sussex – the majority are small independently run homes, which don’t have the wrap-around organisational infrastructure enjoyed by larger / national providers. In East Sussex, Local Authority placements are made across around one-third of the residential and nursing care market. At the peak of the second wave over 100 care homes in East Sussex were closed to admissions due to Covid outbreaks. Week commencing 04/01/21 there were 853 confirmed cases of Covid19 in East Sussex care home settings. During 2021, as of the week ending 19/03/2021, East Sussex has had 2,404 deaths registered in total and 1,110 of these have been attributable to COVID-19, of which 597 have occurred in hospital and 436 have occurred in care homes (LG reform data). In the two years up to April 2019, there were 26 residential and nursing home closures in East Sussex resulting in a loss of 435 beds, across all care groups.

  • POPULATION PROFILE REPORT 1. Age Profile
    POPULATION PROFILE REPORT Sussex and East Surrey has a population of 1.87 million people, across a geographical area of nearly 4,000 square metres. It is a land of contrast, with urban, rural, coastal and landlocked communities. There are areas of affluence, and deprivation. This report outlines the population profiles for Sussex and East Surrey. It highlights the equalities groups and socio-economic make-ups of our communities. It aims to identify whether there are groups within the population that need further engagement. It is structured around key themes found in populations: Age profile (pp. 1 - 4); Deprivation (pp. 4 – 7); Sexual orientation (p. 7); Race and Language (pp. 8 – 11); Disability (pp. 11 – 13) Carers (p. 14); Religion (pp. 14 - 15). The report has used data from the 2011 census collected by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), and statistics gathered by local authorities. 1. Age profile i. NHS Hastings and Rother CCG There is a significantly older age profile (44.5 years), which is higher than England (39.8 years). 50 - 54 year olds make up the highest proportion of the population, (7.6%). 1 There is a significantly higher percentage of pensioners living alone in Hastings, than the England average. ii.

  • East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2008 to March 2009 Introduction
    eastsussex.gov.uk East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2008 to March 2009 Introduction The year was again dominated by efforts towards achieving The Keep, the new Historical Resource Centre, but the core work of the Record Office continued more busily than ever and there was much of which to be proud. In July 2008 we took in our ten-thousandth accession, something of a milestone in the office’s own history of almost 60 years. An application to the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for £4.9million towards the costs of The Keep was submitted by the Record Office on behalf of the capital partners, East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and the University of Sussex, in September. This represented around 20% of the anticipated costs of the building, since the partners remain committed to find the remainder. In December we learned our fate: that we had been unsuccessful. Feedback from the HLF indicated that ours had been an exemplary application, and one which they would have liked to have supported but, in a year when the effect of diverting HLF money to the Olympics was being felt, it was thought necessary to give precedence to some very high-profile projects. We were, of course, disappointed, but determined not to be deterred, and the partners agreed to pursue ways forward within the existing funding. Because it would further hold up the project, adding to inflation costs, but give no guarantee of success, we decided not to re-apply to the HLF, and by the end of the financial year were beginning to look at options for a less expensive building.

  • East Sussex Partnership
    NJUG CASE STUDY CASE STUDY 34: East Sussex Partnership The National Joint Utilities Group (NJUG) is the UK industry association representing utilities on street works issues. The 37 companies1 we represent work to deliver gas, electricity, water and telecommunications to both individual consumers and UK plc. NJUG members need to continue to drive forward further improvements. We have therefore developed the NJUG Vision for Street Works, which revolves around six main principles: 1. Safety is the number one priority 2. Damage to underground assets is avoided 3. Utilities work together and in partnership with local authorities to minimise disruption 4. Utilities deliver consistent high quality 5. Utilities maximise use of sustainable methods and materials 6. Street works in the UK are regarded as world class This case study is an example of NJUG delivering on these principles and turning the vision into reality. Overview: East Sussex County Council (ESCC) has more than 3,000 kilometres of roads and each year these are subject to approximately 50,000 utility services repair or maintenance works. EDF Energy Networks’ projects and those of other utility companies previously led to difficulties for the council in delivering its Network Management Duty under the Traffic Management Act 2004 (TMA). Instead of resorting to legal action, the council entered into a unique, innovative partnership with EDF Energy Networks. This partnership was the first of its type in the country. Its success in providing a focus on delivering street works and road works in a spirit of joint working between utility contractors, noticing teams, inspectors and managers has inspired and encouraged other utilities and authorities to enter into similar agreements.
