Pride of Place Consultation

This consultation is being carried out by the six Local Strategic Partnerships in the county - Eastbourne, Hastings, Lewes District, Rother, Wealden and East Sussex.

We want to hear your views about Pride of Place, the draft Sustainable Community Strategy for East Sussex, and its vision for 2026.

We want you to tell us if you think the priorities set out in the strategy will improve quality of life for people across East Sussex.

The survey should take about 5 minutes to complete.

Please answer the questions below. We have also provided boxes for any specific comments you may want to make. There is also a further section about you. You do not have to complete this section of the survey but it helps us if you do.
