Healthwatch East Sussex want to hear from local people about their experiences of health and care services in the area, and what could be done to improve things.
This April marks the 10th anniversary of Transition Town Hastings visioning day at the White Rock Hotel and the start of a veritable bouquet of actions, events and activities that have changed our town for the better over the past decade!
The most enduring has been the transformation of the area around Warrior Square station since 2015. From transforming a derelict and rubble-strewn hill into the stunning community garden on Platform 2, through the popular community notice-board, the biodiverse winding wildflower path and the awe-inspiring "Welcome to St Leonards' community mosaic, TTH members have contributed thousands of hours over ten years to improve our local neighbourhood for all who live and work here.
Next Tuesday, April 22nd, is Earth Day and we're celebrating the amazing achievement in the Warrior Square Station Garden.
You're invited to join TTH for refreshments at Platform 2, to share the spring beauty of the garden and catch up with old friends. We'll also be sowing wildflower seeds at The Space on St Johns Road, where Guerilla Joe has been hard at work clearing the sedge-choked, litter-strewn area to transform it into another beautiful new garden.
We look forward to celebrating 10 years of TTH and sharing a bit of spring sunshine with you!
Come learn how to sharpen your tools like a pro at our hands-on workshop! Join Transition Town Hastings as Learning to Grow 2025 kicks off with local horticulture expert, Sam Van Den Bogaerde, teaching us how to sharpen our loppers, spades and other garden tools.
As well as learning how to care for our tools, we’ll also be visiting an exciting new space that Hastings Borough Council has provided for Learning to Grow to use as a pop-up community “garden centre”.
Bring your own tools and gardening gloves. (If you don’t have either, just let us know when you book and we can provide.)
No experience necessary – we’ll be learning! Everyone welcome.
Free refreshments provided.
Places are limited, so booking is essential.
