Welcome to Hastings & St Leonards!

You've just moved into one of the UK's most exciting, stunningly beautiful and cosmopolitan towns.  We're at the heart of a massive regeneration programme, with an internationally significant art gallery opening in 2011 and a massive investment in education for people of all ages and backgrounds.  In addition to our award-winning beaches, we're also surrounded by some of Europe's most beautiful countryside with a clifftop country park and a recently restored Victorian park that's ideal for family walks in the Summer sunshine!  You can read more about our town in our Leisure and Culture area.
