ussel x Easat S Are Pane news Skype Quiz Message from your panel The annual Skype Quiz for older residents was held at Newhaven Social Club in December. We’ve been running Resident Involvement Taster Sessions. Residents have heard about the ways residents can get involved with AmicusHorizon, everything from Mystery Shopping to becoming a Governance member. Participating teams enjoyed fish and chips whilst concentrating on the six categories of questions. The winners are based at Royal Terrace in St Leonards. Well done to all involved! After completing a range of activities, residents’ skills were reviewed and each resident was matched to at least one role. We also took into account their free time, interests and skills. Several residents were recommended to join the East Sussex Area Panel because they’re solution focused and have great attention to detail. All residents said the taster sessions were fun and informal and gave them more understanding of how they can get involved. If you’re interested in getting more involved please call your Resident Involvement Team or Karen Earl, Resident Governance Officer on 0800 121 60 60 or email: [email protected] 12  - 0800 121 60 60   Beds ‘n’ borders If you live in one of our new homes in Eastbourne or in Farley Bank, Hastings, we will be brightening up flower beds and garden borders near you soon.
