APPRENTICES across the county were celebrated at a special graduation ceremony recently.
The East Sussex Apprenticeship Graduation Ceremony, held on the evening of Thursday, November 16, recognised the commitment and hard work of East Sussex apprentices from across all industry sectors and of all ages and levels.
RESIDENTS in East Sussex are being urged to take action now to ensure they stay warm and well this winter.
The cold weather can be dangerous for vulnerable groups such as families with young children, older people and those with long-term illnesses.
MOTORISTS are being urged to take extra care on East Sussex roads over the autumn to avoid colliding with deer.
With the mating season in full swing, the risk of encountering the animals on the road increases and leads to an estimated 74,000 deer-related traffic collisions in the UK each year.
OPTIONS are being explored to balance next year’s budget without reducing services despite huge financial pressures, council leaders will be told.
A report due to go before cabinet next week suggests options to be considered could include raising council tax and using some of the authority’s very limited reserves, with the council facing an expected shortfall of £27.5 million in the 2024/25 budget.
