Our vision

East Sussex will be a county where people in later life flourish.

  • Our mission

To enhance the quality of later life for people in East Sussex by:

  • Working with people in later life to identify and respond effectively to their needs and aspirations.
  • Promoting a positive image of later life, reducing poverty, isolation and loneliness, and promoting social integration.
  • Representing people in later life to empower them and give them a voice.
  • Challenging the discrimination they face and addressing the inequalities which this discrimination creates.
  • Being a charity and a social enterprise working together.
  • Working in partnership with other relevant organisations with complimentary aims and objectives.

Activities

Our activities fall into three parts, these are:

  • Influencing the local agenda so older peoples issues are heard by decision makers
  • Fundraising through shops, furniture warehouses etc.
  • delivering services which support older people. There are many of these but they include foot care, help at home for older people discharged from hospital, day clubs and information and Advice
