We've had some queries about delayed host payments and on many occasions this is due to our emails finding their way into your spam/junk folders. If you are experiencing delays or awaiting communication from us, please be sure to check these folders in your email account as this is usually the cause for delay.
If this is not the case and you have further queries or issues, please contact us on 📩 ukraine@eastsussex.gov.uk
As you know, we are required by local government to carry out mandatory checks for those who wish to become hosts which includes DBS and accommodation checks.
So far we've been working hard to get these checks completed and we know they have taken a little time but we are now getting through them more quickly.
We appreciate that many of you will be very busy or have other pressing matters requiring your attention, however, we will only be able to verify you as a host if we can complete these important checks. So please do ensure that you check your spam/junk email folders in case our communications to you have ended up there.
We know many of you have already completed your checks, and thank you for doing so, but for those that are still outstanding, we will send you a reminder letter in the post to help you get this completed. Please look out for this letter and ensure you carry out the necessary actions to complete your checks.
If you know you still have checks to complete and we can help you in anyway with this process, please contact us at 📩 ukraine@eastsussex.gov.uk, or call our contact centre on 📞 01273 337010.
We want to thank you for registering as a host, you are doing a great service for the people of Ukraine.

We have been made aware that there are some Ukrainian children enrolled in schools across East Sussex who have returned home to Ukraine.

You or your guest can contact the school directly to inform them of these changes.
