Eastbourne & District Branch

 of the Alzheimer's Society

Welcome to Eastbourne & District's website. We have a mixed area of town and country, bounded on one side by the sea. Naturally it attracts many retired elderly and so has a large share of people with dementia and, by definition, a large share of carers. While it has several care homes, places in these homes are rarely empty. 

Homes close for a variety of reasons, not least of which is the high price of property in the area making selling to a property developer a tempting option. The local hospital is linked with the Conquest hospital in nearby Hastings and both are beset with 'bed blocking' problems

Our office is in Firle Road (off of Seaside). See the Contacts page for details. 

All are welcome to drop into our office but it is advisable to telephone first. To learn more and for details of our opening hours, please go to CONTACTS
