Across East Sussex, local groups and organisations are providing activities and support to assist our Ukrainian guests in getting to know their local community.
There are lots of groups and organisations working together to offer support to guests and hosts throughout East Sussex. Support varies between organisations, but they work together alongside the Voluntary Actions and Community Hubs. Below is information around this support and how you can access it.
We would like to make you aware of support that is available to you if you are a host on the Homes for Ukraine scheme.
If you struggle to meet the online demands of HfU or feel you could benefit from assistance, please consider accessing this support. Challenges may come in the form of completing online forms, requests and navigating necessary information.
ITforYou offers volunteer led IT sessions in libraries. Sessions currently run at Battle, Bexhill, Crowborough, Eastbourne, Hailsham, Hampden Park, Hastings, Heathfield, Hollington, Lewes, Newhaven, Rye, Seaford and Uckfield Libraries. Coming soon to Peacehaven.
People can book online or phone 01323 463759 to make an appointment. When booking, all you need to do is state what you need help with.
Information and support is available on our website to help people across East Sussex with the cost of living crisis. We provide information around:
• Money help and advice • Mental Health • Help with benefits • Employment and learning • Transport • Help for households
If you are being affected or are worried about the cost of living, help is available. Please find out more on our website 👇
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.
