Battle for Hastings

How do you turn round a town in decline? Hastings is best known all round the world for a key battle almost a thousand years ago. Today with a population of 86000 it faces the plight many seaside towns have faced for the last fifty years. It scores high in the deprivation table - a new measure which takes into account lots of factors from unemployment, education and crime.

Attempts to revive the decaying town in what is the richest region of the country were focussed on getting better transport links for the town. In 2000, in what at the time appeared a fatal blow for the town, the government declined the application for a by pass to the town. But this decision galavanised the town and triggered a renaissance which is showing interesting results in how to build strong vibrant communities.

What is the buzz happening in Hastings that has got everyone, young and old, excited? What lessons can other towns learn who are also in the regeneration game?
