9 July 2018 East Sussex Annual Conference
- Programme
- Gig Buddies – Paul Richards
- Universal Credit in a rural setting – Kay Birch
- Seaview reaching the furthest first – Annie Whelan
- Evalution form
Recent changes to services, including reductions in front line services because of budget restrictions, have highlighted the challenges that all organisations that deliver services to the public face in anticipating and responding to the differing needs in our communities. How do we best respond to the challenges? Using the principle of furthest first, the idea that by reaching and solving the challenges of those in most need of help, you learn more. All of these learnings can then be applied to reaching the rest of the population with improved velocity and scale. The Assembly will consider the particular challenges facing each sector, examples of successful ‘furthest first’ projects and how we can work in partnership to maintain delivery of high quality services.
7 November 2017 East Sussex Annual Conference
- Programme
- Introduction to Community Confidence – Nazeya Hussain
- Counter Terrorism Unit – Pete Dommett
- Organised Crime Gang – Dave Padwick
- Envionment Agency – David Bonner
Recent national events, including terror attacks in London and Manchester and the fire at Grenfell Tower, have highlighted the challenges that all organisations that deliver services to the public face in anticipating and responding to emergencies and managing and meeting communities’ expectations. From delivering day-to-day services and support to undertaking emergency planning, public facing organisations in all sectors are expected to undertake a wide-range of established duties, anticipate and plan for eventualities, and be visible and maintain 24 hour communications with reducing resources. The Assembly will consider the particular challenges facing each sector, examples of successful community engagement and how we can work in partnerships to maintain communities’ confidence in this context.
