Wealden based projects have received funding from the National Lottery Community Fund, with the news welcomed by MP Nus Ghani.
Funding will be supporting various projects, including the family event in Crowborough on 6 May to celebrate the Coronation of His Majesty The King and Hailsham Music Theatre will receive support to deliver a resident-led community event, to reduce social isolation and build community spirit.
The National Lottery Community Fund awarded £44,180 to Wealden community projects between November 2022 and February 2023.
Previous recipients include Spring Rise Community Gardens in Forest Row, Mount Camphill Community in Wadhurst and Artytime in Crowborough.
Nus Ghani said: "Community projects play a crucial role in supporting Wealden residents and this vital source of funding has already provided a huge boost to many brilliant local organisations and grassroots projects. I am delighted to see that Wealden groups have been benefiting from over £44,000 of funding in recent months and that Crowborough and Hailsham are the latest recipients of this support, which will enable them to not only deliver community events for local residents, but also to fittingly celebrate the Coronation of His Majesty The King."
