We have booked some truly inspirational speakers to tell us about ideas that have proved successful elsewhere to help towns thrive.
You are welcome to just come and listen, but if you are hungry for new ideas and have the energy to work together to adapt them to the Hastings context, you can be part of the treasure. Small pots of money and mentoring are available to support the growth of new community businesses that emerge from this event.

I am a postgraduate student at the University of Sussex, Brighton. I am interested in the sustainability initiatives undertaken in the UK. I am specifically interested in the transfer of innovations for sustainable development to different locations.
I found your initiative of ‘the common treasury of adaptable ideas’ fascinating. Unfortunately, due to a pre-scheduled trip, I was unable to attend the event on 25th April that was organized in Hastings. But I would like to know more about this initiative. Whom should I contact? It would be great if you could share the contact details with me.
