Sussex Community Blog

This blog makes a stand for openness and accountability, eg with the Hastings Pier Fire Justice Fiasco. The potential community justice Phoenix has not yet arisen. "We need to act if we want justice" was the first piece on this theme published in the Hastings Observer (2011). In 2014 the blog author is now working closely with people who know the arrestees.

Your preferred next step towards resolving something in Hastings/ St Leonards

  • Please email the Restorative Technology CEO, Paul Crosland, via this Mediation Support Ltd email form
  • Perhaps you prefer phone based communication?; Paul's phone number is provided on the home page for 123 telephone mediation.
  • If you want to meet face-to-face, by all means call into the office, based at Southwater Area Community Centre, or ask for me to come and visit you.
    • Travel directions will be added to this site in the form of a YouTube clip; simply travel to St Leonards Warrior Square Station from eg Charing Cross or London Bridge, or even Hastings station (less than 4 minutes away). The Southwater area community centre is right next to Platform 2 of St Leonards Warrior Square Station.
  • If you want to see me being interviewed for a minute on ITV1 about the importance of communication between victims and offenders, see here
  • and if you want to hear (or download) an mp3 talk on the approach I use that underlies the mediation/restorative justice I provide; here's an old, valued, talk.
  • Here's the page from where that talk from Marshall Rosenberg comes.
  • And here's a place to practice sorting out an issue of grievance in your life.
  • One even simpler way to look at your needs and the needs of others, then press 'print' and get creative in getting those needs met.
  • And here's the link to our long-term colleagues and friends, the Hastings & Rother community mediation service.
