A PROGRAMME of activities is taking place in September and October to mark International Older People’s Day 2023.
The Full of Life events programme has been unveiled by East Sussex County Council and East Sussex Seniors’ Association (ESSA) and features over 40 free and paid for activities open to the 50 plus age group.
THE CONTRIBUTION of volunteers is being celebrated with the development of an app to make it easier for people to find opportunities.
East Sussex County Council is working with The Tribe Project on an initiative to boost community involvement across the county and support voluntary organisations in finding the right volunteers for the right roles.
The app, currently in development, will help support the work of Rother Voluntary Action (RVA), Hastings Voluntary Action (HVA) and Wealden, Eastbourne, and Lewes Voluntary Action (3VA).
CUSTOMERS will find it even easier to access services as three East Sussex Libraries undergo extensive refurbishment.
Work will take place in Rye, Newhaven and Hollington to improve their layout to enhance customer experience, with children’s areas and study spaces being upgraded and new seating installed so users can browse services in comfort. Continue reading
