Love, love, love… all we need is love?

Back in 1996, in the heady surroundings of Lewisham Registry Office, I said my wedding vows to the man who was to become my husband, writes HOT’s Zelly Restorick.  A few years later, I was divorced – and aware that I’d broken the promise I’d made to stay together with him “’til death us do part”. 

Be mobile and make them mobile!

Sponsored walkers are looking to raise £1,000 for charity by walking about 60 miles from St Leonards-on-Sea to Canterbury in April. The walk is being organised by Ian McNulty, manager of an Abbeyfield South Downs House at St Leonards. Ian leads a team out each year to raise funds to keep a mini-bus on the road for residents, writes HOT’s Chris Cormack.

What about a Business “Freegle” to Boost Hastings?

Hastings is strong on self-help, mix and match and patch and repair to solve its day to day problems of making do. Self-help organisations,  such as Freegle, Hastings Creatives and Hastings Network help small businesses, micro-businesses and the voluntary sector that make up Hastings’ creative community to network and exchange resources and expertise. What if a new initiative could bring extra resources and expertise into this sector, care of “our bank”, the nationalised Lloyds Banking Group?,  writes HOT’s Chris Cormack.
