This July, Pride season brought a wave of colour and connection across East Sussex. It began at County Hall, where the rainbow flag was raised in the company of NHS colleagues, Sussex Police, Fire & Rescue, and Ambulance Services – a public statement of unity and inclusion.
These celebrations built on the same principle guiding our health and care work: that everyone should feel safe, respected, and seen.
Healthwatch East Sussex continues its Listening Tour, capturing local voices about healthcare and wellbeing. Following the publication of its 2024/25 report, the tour is now in Rother.
A workshop will take place on Thursday 25 September 2025, 10:00 – 12:30, at Pebsham Community Hub, Bexhill-on-Sea, giving residents, carers, and professionals a chance to share their views on services in the area.
