Ukrainian guests and their hosts are warmly invited to The Big Sparks event to celebrate the wonderful ways that East Sussex communities are creating positive change in their neighbourhoods.
It will be a chance to learn about what others are doing, as well as share skills, interests and knowledge. It will also be an opportunity to try new things, meet new people and explore what might be achieved together.
For more information about the event and how to book, please see the attached flyer.

Most of our guests will have suffered significant loss and may be struggling to adapt to their move. They may have had physical injuries and been through difficult and traumatic experiences. It is completely understandable that they may be feeling low, anxious or emotional.
This guide aims to give them information to help them understand what they might be struggling with - and information on how they can access our National Health Service (NHS) for help. These services are free.
For more information on emotional support for refugees, there are a variety of resources to support your guest, including Health in Mind and the NHS website.
They can be contacted using the below resource if your guest would like support. 👇

East Sussex Libraries offer a wide range of services and materials for adults and children.
It's free for guests to become a member of the library and borrow books, films, music or other items. East Sussex libraries also now have eBooks in Ukrainian which are free for guests to borrow.

Please remember that we ask all hosts to update our online form twice only.
First - When you give us details of everyone aged 16 or over in your household so we can carry out safety checks
Second - please use the form to tell us when your guests arrive. This will help us speed up payments and services that are due.
You only need to do each of these steps once. If you've already updated the form, you do not need to do it again - thank you.
This newsletter is sent to every host (sponsor) in East Sussex who is part of Homes for Ukraine to keep you updated. You can unsubscribe at any time.
We expect to send you a further update next week.
Until then, we'd like to wish you all an enjoyable weekend.
