Due East Report
We have continued to deliver on our core aims and objectives in 2024/25
-
To provide Communication across the estate via the newsletter and networking of groups to enable the community and groups to be aware of and to engage in opportunities and to provide voice to all local people.
-
To distribute HNF funding for the community particularly start-up groups to facilitate healthy living opportunities.
-
To develop and to distribute a small bursery funding for the community particularly to assist start-up groups or to support activities that benefit the community.
-
To facilitate funding bids for new groups and projects that don’t have bank accounts yet by holding ringfenced money for their use.
-
To support the Neighbourhood Action plan refresh to assist in celebrating community progress and to identify community needs and priorities.
-
Due East continued to support our community by assisting in the increase in resident engagement, by communicating via newsletters and digital platforms as well as working with other agencies to ensure activities and opportunities across East Brighton were made as accessible as possible both physically and digitally. We supported the production of a Health Newsletter, summer edition and updated the What’s on in BN2 5 activity directory both hard copy and electronic. This is in direct response to the health forum, Primary Care Network and Public Health priorities around communicating health services and activities to residents.
-
Due East has this year continued to work with the NHS and TDC to enable us to administer Healthy Neighbourhood funding (HNF). In the last year we have supported funding which has enabled us to fund 16 local groups to provide activities to benefit the health of local people to a value of £6,400. It has also supported by holding funding for a further 3 new groups including North Whitehawk Residents Association (until they had their own bank account up and running), Esol coffee and conversation group and umbrelled a funding application for Whitehawk Multi-Cultural Women’s Group.
-
We also successfully applied for Fairness Fund for Place 2k which enabled us to give out Cost of Living support packages to 20 families and pledged £500 to match fund an HNF bid to run a pilot podiatry project for vulnerable people needing toe nail cutting services to start in early 2026.
-
We continued to support a series of engagement events including a successful Intergenerational event with over 140 in attendance and Health taster Event.
We are proud of what we’ve achieved and look forward to another year of empowering local people to create and deliver solutions that meet local needs.
