'LIVING LONGER, LIVING WELL' 
The County Council wants your views on plans for the next five years for adults in later life and their carers as set out in a draft strategy entitled 'Living longer, living well'.
The document sets out how organisations around the county plan to improve health, social care and housing support services over the next five years. The organisations involved are East Sussex County Council's Adult Social Care; NHS East Sussex PCTs; East Sussex Hospital Trust; and Sussex Partnership Foundation Trust Partners.
The draft strategy 'Living longer, living well' was produced as the result of talking regularly to adults in later life and their carers over the past three years and sets out how these organisations intend to develop and improve services. They want to hear your views and comments so that they can further develop and improve the strategy.
If you would like your own views to be included you can download the strategy and a questionnaire from  www.eastsussex.gov.uk/haveyoursay or alternatively send an email to the following address: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .  If you don't use the internet you can request printed copies from the Strategic Commissioning Team on 01273 481 565.
Completed questionnaires must be returned by 31st August 2010.
The results of the consultation on the draft strategy, and the changes that will be made as a result, will be published in December 2010, and we will hope to put a summary in Grey Matters soon afterwards.
If you have any questions about the draft strategy or the consultation please contact:
