HVA have been working with the Institute for Volunteering Research on the largest ever survey about volunteering in Hastings and the team have now launched a report of the findings. Find out more here: http://www.hastingsvoluntaryaction.org.uk/news/major-study-shines-light-volunteering-hastings.
The results of the HVA/IVR study will now be used to create a volunteering strategy for Hastings and HVA want to involve as many local voices and ideas in the process as possible. We will be holding two focus groups in October:
Tuesday 11th October, 4pm-6.30pm & Friday 14th October 12pm-2.30pm.
To get involved in a focus group, help to develop the strategy or simply share your views and experiences, book here, or contact Jane Caley on: [email protected] or call 01424 444010.

Mr Hastings & St Leonards and HVA are bringing the Baton of Hope to Hastings on September 23rd, 2025, as part of the National Baton of Hope tour and you have the opportunity to carry the Baton on the Hastings Leg of the tour. Baton Bearers carry the Baton as a symbol of hope, togetherness solidarity and a shared purpose, whether that’s in memory of someone lost to suicide, suicide survivors or anyone who is passionate about suicide prevention. This is an opportunity to honour lives lost, raise awareness and spark conversations.
