In Battle we lead on the council’s bid to turn the town’s grass verges and other open areas into wildflower meadows, while Rye leads on the news that funding for lifeguards at Camber Sands has finally been given the go ahead.
Other stories making the news this week include a Community First Responder, who was the first on the scene of the Camber Sands tragedies, receiving an award for his efforts, traders in Rye are unhappy about a national retail chain’s ‘sneaky’ methods, and we catch up with a woman from Battle who suffered a stroke and was helped back on her feet by a new Stroke Recovery Service which has just launched in the area.
