—Action in Rural Sussex
The confirmation today (Monday 7 January) that Action in Rural Sussex will be here in Pevensey Bay this month is important news with regard to the regeneration of local business and business support here in both Pevensey Bay and Pevensey.
So often both communities have been ignored with grant provision, the provision of business support and attention on the kinds of specific rural development that we desperately need if we are to survive and flourish as two small business communities.
The arrival of Action in Rural Sussex may mark the first step change in our fortunes with attention on the specific kinds of business development that we so desperately need.
New lifeblood here in terms of business profile and attention in key aspects of the profile of the communities as visitor destinations is vital.
Action in Rural Sussex is one of the most important agents in Sussex.
They explain, “we were establsihed in 1931, we are staffed by a highly experienced and dedicated team who are committed to helping people overcome the challenges caused by their rural location.
“Our vision is for a thriving, economically active rural Sussex full of choice and opportunities for everyone, regardless of their circumstances.
The charity works by making grants to organisations, providing human resources, provides services, provides advocacy, sponsoring and undertakes research and acting as an umbrella or resource body.
Already local business, Mrs McGoo the Scotitsh tablet confectionery business, based in Bexhill, but profiling their wares in Pevensey Bay, has signed up to the networking event.
The free Business Networking & Support Session in Pevensey Bay takes place at St. Wilfrid’s Church Hall on Monday, 21 January 2019 from 18:00-19:30.
