With the Towns Fund programme and investment, we can build upon our previous regeneration successes. Our town centre needs to focus on the future: we need to use all our strengths to engage new investors, entrepreneurs and visitors. We need to inspire and energise local people, whilst simultaneously attracting more people with vision and enthusiasm to live, work and set up business in the town. Regeneration must also directly benefit those living in ‘For centuries, people have made Hastings their home. the poorest areas of the town. We need to create more Inspired by our landscape, by the sea and our position on opportunities, skilled people and skilled jobs and inspiring the south coast, people come here to live; to raise their surroundings to lift the spirits and erase the stigma family; to leave the urban sprawl; to be creative; or to start of deprivation. a business and build new opportunities.

Despite all the investments over the past twenty years, To level up we need government to develop a ‘long-term’ Our shared vision for the fund is clear: deprivation levels have remained almost static.

  • Eastbourne to Hastings Via Bexhill Walk
    Saturday Walkers Club www.walkingclub.org.uk Eastbourne to Hastings via Bexhill walk Flat coastal walk along the south coast past busy sea front promenades and quiet beaches. Shingle Check the tide times before doing this walk - do the middle section at low tide if possible The middle 2 km section of this walk is along a beach which at mid and high tide is all shingle, which is not fun to walk on. At low tide there is a sandy beach below the shingle which is much more pleasant to walk on. At mid/high tide, you could instead walk along the coast road (no sea view), catch a regular bus or irregular train. Length 24 km/15 miles - shorter options from around 8 km/5 miles Toughness 1 out of 10 (7 out of 10 if walking on shingle) Features This gentle walk follows the 15 miles (24 km) of flat coastline between Eastbourne and Hastings. It is in 3 parts - 2 seafront promenades with a quiet shingle beach in between which is nice to walk on only at low tide when the flat sandy part of the beach is uncovered. If doing the middle section, check tide times so you can walk along sand at low tide, rather than the shingle, which is very heavy going. Although the entire walk is quite long, there are shorter options, as there is a railway line following the coast, with several stations en-route. Eastbourne to Pevensey Bay - seafront promenade Starting in Eastbourne, a faded Edwardian grandeur seaside resort, the walk heads from the station down through a pedestrian shopping street to a very nice seafront esplanade and a Victorian pier (1 km) and a sandy beach.

  • East Sussex College Group 2019-20 Access and Participation Plan
    East Sussex College Group 2019-20 Access and Participation Plan Assessment of Current Performance The East Sussex College Group – Introduction to the College The East Sussex College Group is a Further Education College serving East Sussex, with campuses situated in Hastings, Ore Valley, Eastbourne, Newhaven, and Lewes. The College Group is the result of the merger between Sussex Coast College Hastings and Sussex Downs College in March 2018. Both former colleges in the Group were subject to a Quality Review Visit in 2017 from The Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education, and the outcome was ‘confidence’ in the Higher Education offer. The College Group has longstanding relationships with its validating partners, the University of Brighton and Pearson Education, and offers Honours Degrees, Foundation Degrees and Higher National Certificates and Diplomas across a broad range of subject areas. This Access and Participation Plan sets out how the East Sussex College Group aims to improve access to Higher Education, student success and progression amongst those groups currently under-represented in Higher Education. The College Group has taken a strategic approach, responding to national and regional agendas for widening access, as well as objectives identified within the College Group’s strategic statement. We aim to meet our objectives through collaboration, both internally and externally, and by continuing to work towards embedding widening access, outreach, student success and progression in to the institution, supporting the whole student life cycle. Through careful monitoring, we will evaluate and prioritise programmes and activities that have the greatest impact, and aim to reduce the difference in success for those students with Widening Participation characteristics.

  • REP-7214-001 Chris Lewcock Position Statement on Matter 1 (Pdf)
    Statement of Representations by Christopher Peter Lewcock on behalf of the Bulverhythe Protectors I have a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Urban and Regional Planning, a Diploma in Development Studies and an MPhil in Land Economy. I worked for a total of eleven years in English Local Authority Planning Departments. I have also worked as a lecturer in the Built Environment at the University of Greenwich. The Localism Act 2011 (the Act) imposes on a local planning authority the duty to cooperate. This is explained further in relevant Central Government Guidance published 6 March 2014 (the Guidance 2014). They are required “… to engage constructively, actively and on an ongoing basis…“(the Act) … “to maximise the effectiveness of Local Plan … preparation in the context of strategic cross boundary matters” (the Guidance 2014). The duty to cooperate is imposed on the Council preparing their Plan but is equally true in respect of strategic matters of any neighbouring local planning authority. I would submit that Rother District, due to a lack of constructive engagement by Hastings Borough Council, may be unable to comply with this duty to cooperate. My particular concern is with the handling of the Strategic Gap between Bexhill and Hastings. In its Submission Rother District sets out the extent of cooperation on the Hastings urban fringe (paras 4.56 et seq). “Rother and Hastings Councils put forward a joint approach to development in Hastings and Bexhill to advance their shared future prosperity through the respective Core Strategies. This included the establishment of the Countryside Park as well as mutually agreed transport infrastructure improvements, with the now constructed Link Road as the first priority.
