The Eastbourne Access Group is a voluntary society that was formed to oversee the making of the Eastbourne section of a county-wide Access Guide.
The Access Group consists of a small number of members, each with a different disability or knowledge of it.
We meet on alternate months at the Palm Court Hotel. Some meetings also take place at Shinewater Court, which is a Residential Care Home in Eastbourne run by the Disabilities Trust.
Each year the Group produces the Eastbourne Access Guide which contains guidance on places, spaces and information around Eastbourne. It also contains wheelchair route maps and information on access features in Eastbourne's hotels.
The Group is always keen to enrol new members and there really is no hard work involved. If you are sufficiently concerned about the difficulties that disabled people face in specific or in general terms then the Access Group will be pleased to welcome you as a member. Your opinion is valuable.
The Eastbourne Access Group would like to hear from you if:
-
you have a disability and/or;
-
you have a family member who is disabled in any way and/or;
-
you are keen on making life easier for disabled people.
Your opinion is valuable and you would be most welcome at our meetings.
If you are interested in joining the Group, or would just like to receive further information, please contact:
