The team had a wonderful evening Ashdown Radio & Wealden Volunteering's Community Awards on Friday. We were joined by the wonderful Claire and her husband from Culture Shift too.

It was a evening full of warm fuzzy feelings with all the amazing groups and organisations that make a truly amazing place to live and work.

Today our amazing volunteer Karla Jones and her husband Phil are walking to find a cure for Parkinson's. If you can show your support by sponsoring her it would be hugely appreciated.

Good Luck Karla & Phil from all of us at Sussex Support Service!

We are all looking forward to celebrating all the finalists at this evenings Community Awards! It is fabulous that two of our projects Repair Café Uckfield and Victoria Pavilion Arts are two of the finalists. We are so proud that two other finalists Culture Shift and Uckfield Theatre Guild are both based with us at Victoria Pavilion Support Centre too.

Very excited about this evening's Awards Ceremony. Victoria Pavilion Arts is delighted to have been nominated in the Arts and Culture category along with 2 other fantastic organisations.

Extremely proud to have got this far but a win would be stupendous. Wish us luck 🤞😃 We will keep you posted x
