Hello 👋 This board brings together information about projects, groups and businesses around Hailsham that exist to address climate change, the restoration of nature or the cost of living.

It's an informal resource, put together by a local resident who wants to build a picture of what's happening locally.

Greening Chiddingly is an active, enthusiastic local group working to create a sustainable, low-carbon future for Chiddingly and surrounding villages in East Sussex. Our aim is to get our community thinking about what we can do to tackle climate change – providing information so that we can all make informed choices – and taking action as a village to make a real and targetted difference.

Greening Herstmonceux will be our collective effort to enhance nature, mitigate climate change and promote sustainable practices within the village and surrounding areas. Happily, these efforts will also support our long-term health and wellbeing.

AirS supports the rural communities of Sussex in various ways, using a community led, strength based approach. We have 4 broad service offers around community led planning and housing, community buildings and community development. In Wealden we are working on an ESCC project called Making it Happen, asset based support for groups to find their own answers to the challenges they face.

We give out emergency food parcels to local people referred to us by agencies.  We also offer onsite Citizens Advice, Community Money Advice and a Community Fridge.  The cost of living crisis has had a huge impact on our service both with the amount of people we are serving and the donations we receive.

I’m seeking to make this land available to community groups who recognise the benefits of nature connection for our health, wellbeing and resilience. I wish to enhance the biodiversity at Hackhurst Farm through collaborating with projects that benefit the land and those who come to tend it. And, to work in partnership with those who are seeking land to grow food for this local community. ~ Rebecca Kriese
