A quick statistic from our latest community listening project as part of our On Your Doorstep Project, funded by Adur & Worthing Councils’ Thriving Together Grant: Only 7 of the 116 people we spoke to told us Eastbrook wasn't for them.

The bigger story was everything else we heard. People talked about wanting places to meet neighbours, activities for young people, creative groups, somewhere welcoming to spend time, opportunities to learn new skills, share hobbies and feel part of the community.

When 60% of residents say they would attend or might attend an event, that's encouraging. But what mattered most was the quality of the conversations behind the numbers. One resident suggested a repair café. Another wanted activities for newly retired people. Others talked about youth clubs, choirs, board games, dance, art and community projects.

People care about Fishersgate. People care about Eastbrook. And people want to be involved in shaping what happens next.

When we knocked on doors around Eastbrook Manor Community Centre, we expected to hear ideas. What we didn't expect was how many people would be pleased that someone had come to ask. Over two days we spoke to 116 local residents. Sixty per cent said they would attend or might attend a future event at Eastbrook. Most people who couldn't come weren't saying they didn't want to. They were juggling work, caring responsibilities, appointments and busy lives.

We also found that Eastbrook is already a familiar place for many local people. Lots of residents knew about it, and many had used it before. The conversations went far beyond whether people would come to an event. Residents shared ideas for youth activities, social groups, creative projects, wellbeing support, community events and ways to bring neighbours together.

Thank you to everyone who opened their door and shared their thoughts. You've given us plenty to think about and a strong starting point for the next stages of our latest community listening project as part of our On Your Doorstep Project, funded by Adur & Worthing Councils’ Thriving Together Grant.
