We would like to invite you to our Hastings listening tour stakeholder workshop. The workshop brings together local VCSE and health and social care partners to discuss the issues affecting the local people, and how things could be improved. We will be exploring various topics including:
• Accessing primary care
• Social isolation
• Social determinants of health and wellbeing
Refreshments including a light lunch will be provided from 1:30pm, with the workshop beginning at 2pm. Feedback shared will be used to contribute to ongoing work to improve the health and wellbeing of local residents.

Hastings Borough Council (HBC) is in the process of drafting a new Housing Strategy for the town. This will be a five-year strategy with the aim of adoption by the Autumn 2025. It will set out how HBC will meet their ambition for everyone in the town to have a decent place to live. HVA are working with HBC to facilitate a session for community organisations to comment on the draft strategy.
Book yourself a place to take part in this important conversation.
MECC (Making Every Contact Count) is a practical introduction to the skills in talking to people about the issues they are concerned about or the changes they are seeking to make. It is all about supporting people to identify and access the things that could help them. So if your work brings you into frequent contact with people and you want to improve the likelihood of making a real difference this training could be for you. A light lunch will be provided.
Are you new in post or keen to find out more about the sector?
