It gives me great pleasure to write this introduction for the new edition of the Town Guide, and I hope you find it as useful as it is intended to be.

The guide has been updated and expanded and now includes information about services and facilities provided by the Town Council, in addition to all the local information for residents and visitors to the town.

Uckfield is a busy and growing market town, with an excellent range of shops, restaurants, schools and leisure facilities to suit all tastes and thriving business parks that have proven attractive to local, national and international employers. The town continues to grow and develop but still retains its strong sense of community.

Regular events such as the Festival and Carnival, monthly farmers market and an on-going season of entertainments at the Weald Hall ensure that there is something for everyone to enjoy throughout the year.

The Civic Centre, situated just off the High Street, adjacent to Luxfords Field car park and play area, is the home of the Town Council and Luxford Restaurant. It offers ideal accommodation for meetings, conferences, concerts, parties and wedding receptions, with licensed restaurant facilities, full in-house catering service for functions, a range of audio-visual equipment and easy access and facilities for people with disabilities.

In and around our busy town, there are numerous peaceful green open spaces to enjoy, including two Nature Reserves, a pond and several woodlands which are maintained by the Town Council.

There are many voluntary and charitable organisations based in Uckfield who bring care and thought to our community. The Town Council provides support in many ways including providing grant aid to help these groups achieve their goals in helping others.

I do hope that you find this guide useful. Should any information have been missed, please accept our apologies and notify the Council Offices for future publications.

Town Mayor - Cllr. Louise Eastwood
