Northeye

We are fully aware of the deep concerns felt by Bexhill residents following the Home Office decision to house asylum seekers at the Northeye site in Bexhill, a former prison and military training centre.

Rother District Council and East Sussex County Council are working together, to understand and assess in more detail the impact this would have on our community. The Town Council will be liaising directly with them on behalf of residents. We encourage residents to write to Huw Merriman MP with any proposals and ideas that you may think are useful or helpful in minimising the impact that this decision will have on our community. Mr Merriman is meeting with the Home Office and will take forward our issues.

The Town Council is here to listen and support residents, do keep an eye on our website and social media pages for any further updates. You can visit us at the Town Council Hub on Western Road between the hours of 10.00 – 12.30 and 1.00 – 2.30pm Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
