The Business Secretary, Alok Sharma, thanked workers and businesses for their support during the coronavirus pandemic in an article last week.

The Prime Minister has this morning written to all leaders of opposition parties in Parliament, inviting them to a briefing with himself, the Chief Medical Officer and the Chief Scientific Adviser next week.

An update from our Police and Crime Commissioner for Sussex, Katy Bourne OBE:

Every one of us in East Sussex has been affected by coronavirus. It has brought drastic changes to our daily lives and, in some cases, great sadness. My thoughts are with everyone coping with grief and worry at this unprecedented time.

THE introduction of increased parking charges across the county has been delayed in light of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

Following the Government’s announcement that support will be offered to businesses affected by the Coronavirus pandemic, Wealden District Council are now able to accept applications for grant funding.

The government has reached a landmark agreement with airlines to fly back more stranded British travellers from abroad, ensuring airlines can continue to operate and bring people back home safely. 

COMMUNITY hubs have begun operating across East Sussex to bring extra help for people who need support in coping with the effects of coronavirus.

The Prime Minister has written a letter to every UK household, urging everyone to stay at home, protect the NHS and save lives.

The Government will do whatever it takes to support the NHS and protect the public as we come together to tackle this national emergency.

As part of the national effort to support vulnerable people in self-isolation, Wealden District Council is asking for volunteers to help as we all work to limit the spread of the Covid-19 virus.
