Wealden District

As the local Voluntary Action, we provide a wide range of development support to groups working across Wealden District – from Birling Gap, Polegate and Hailsham to Uckfield and Crowborough in the High Weald.

Our focus is asset-based community development. We can work with you on a range of areas, including setting up a new group, choosing the right structure, identifying funding opportunities and applying for them, developing policies, managing projects and much more. We can also help you recruit and retain volunteers.
