Getting involved – forums, clubs and services for older people

Older people’s forums

Older people's forums are open to anyone aged 50 or over in East Sussex. Older people can get involved in helping to shape services in a variety of ways.

Every Autumn events take place around the county to celebrate Older People’s Day. If you would like to get involved either as an organisation or community group, to host an event or as a volunteer, contact Kate Davies, chair of East Sussex Seniors’ Association, on 01273 516207.
