Message from the Hailsham Town Clerk, John Harrison:

"On behalf of the Town Council, I extend my best wishes for a very happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

It has been another busy year for the Council and we have accomplished a significant amount over the past 12 months through careful budgeting and effective collaboration with partners and the local community.

These achievements would not have been possible without the commitment of Town Council staff and members, project partners, local organisations, businesses and residents. I offer my sincere thanks to everyone involved in our work and projects for their continued support.

Once again, best wishes to residents for a very happy Christmas and a prosperous and healthy 2026."
