  • 2018 Resource Centre Report
    Resource Centre support for East Brighton groups doubles in 2018 Resource Centre support work with volunteer run community groups in East Brighton area has almost doubled in the last year. We have continued to provide essential support with our Accounts Examination and Design & Print service. In addition, demand for on-to-one support and consultancy, in all aspects of running a group, has more than doubled. It has been inspiring to see so many new groups, run entirely by local people, emerging and finding their feet over the last year. This adds to the many groups that continue to do what they do so well, understanding the needs of their community and taking action to support local people and bring them together. One-to-one support and consultancy We provided 56 one-to-one support sessions (compared to 22 in the previous year) to 20 different groups. Seven of these groups are either new or had never used the Resource Centre before. Collectively, they help and improve the wellbeing of a wide range of local people from ‘the cradle to the grave’ and lots of people in between. They help improve the local woods, parks and outdoor spaces; provide lunches for children, families and older people; organise events that are free to local people; provide art and dance activities; run community buildings; investigate local history; create newsletters; and provide a hub where local people can come together to build networks and friendships. We supported groups to draft constitutions, policies and procedures; think about legal structures and report to the Charity Commission; keep their accounts and prepare their budgets; improve their communication and use of social media; apply for funding and evaluate their projects.

Water and any associated contaminants then pass into a traditional piped system adjacent to Lewes Rd, prior to ultimately discharging to a series of soakaways in Wild Park, Lewes Rd, Moulsecoomb, Brighton, BN1 9JR. The site lies in a Source Protection Zone 1 and 2 (SPZ1 and 2) for drinking water. A recent PhD conducted at the University of Brighton has demonstrated presence of a range of potential contaminants in the balancing pond (heavy metals and hydrocarbons) with zinc and benzo (a) pyrene being of particular concern.
