Sustainable Community Strategy Consultation

What is the Draft Sustainable Community Strategy?

It is a joint Strategy developed by The Lewes District Local Strategic Partnership which comprises the main agencies, organisations and local community groups in the Lewes District such as the County and District Councils, Sussex Police, Primary Care Trust, South Downs Council for Voluntary Services, Action in Rural Sussex, town and parish councils and many others.
These groups represent the public, private, community and voluntary sectors as well as the five distinctly different geographical parts of the District (namely Lewes Town, Newhaven, Peacehaven and Telscombe, Seaford, and the many rural communities).

The Sustainable Community Strategy sets out a shared vision to tackle deprivation and inequality in the Lewes District and improve the quality of life of local communities. It sets out the key priorities for action over the coming years across six main themes:

• A Valued Environment
• Decent and Affordable Housing For All
• Safer and Stronger Communities
• Access to Good Local Facilities
• Healthier Communities
• A Vibrant and Sustainable Economy
