Hailsham Town Council is inviting residents to attend the next Annual Town Meeting next month and have their say on local issues.
The meeting which will take place at the Hailsham Civic Community Hall in Vicarage Lane on Wednesday 1st April will hear from members of the public, an update from Mayor Paul Holbrook and will also recognise the winner of the 2020 Hailsham Hero Community Award.

John Harrison, Hailsham Town Clerk commented; “It’s been another very busy year where we have been taking forward a number of projects, including improvements to existing services and the decision to save our local post office. Our Annual Town Meeting offers a great opportunity to provide a clear update on the important community projects that we have been working on to take the town forward.”
“Furthermore, this vitally important meeting gives all residents an opportunity to tell us what you would like to see over the coming year and put forward your views on ways to improve our town for everyone.”
Town Mayor Councillor Paul Holbrook said: “It is the responsibility of all of us to help ensure that the town continues to be a pleasant place to live, work and visit, so I encourage you to come along and put forward your comments and suggestions. Your town councillors will be there to listen, help and answer any questions relating to our services and projects.”
