Getting Around - See what Shopmobility offers the less mobile. Try a wheelchair accessible vehicle (WAV), accessible rail travel, Motability Scheme. Pick up an Eastbourne Guide for Disabled People.

Local Support - Speak to local charities who offer support, information and guidance on a wide range of topics and disabilities. Talk to someone NEW, see how they can help you.

You may discover something new to try, somewhere new to go, something new to do, someone new to talk to, somewhere new to help you. Plus come and see what’s new in The Beacon and with more shops, restaurants and a cinema opening over the coming months there will be even more new opportunities to try somewhere new.
