What do you think of the proposed priorities to improve supported housing in East Sussex?

The priorities will be part of the Supported Housing Strategy for East Sussex which is being developed by Eastbourne, Hastings, Lewes, Rother, Wealden and East Sussex Councils. 

The strategy will set out how the councils will work together with partners to improve supported housing and make sure it meets the needs of local people. 

They want to hear from supported housing residents, their families and carers, housing providers and staff working in health and care.

In particular, the strategy will help local councils:

• plan for the supported housing that people will need
• work with housing providers to continue improving the quality of supported housing
• make sure supported housing is safe, suitable and well managed
• make sure residents receive the right support and have a say in the services they use

The survey closes on 21st December 2026. Please visit the East Sussex County Council website for more information and to submit your views.
