Lead Areas

We have divided up the work so that for some issues we have a lead person, who leads on the proactive work on that issue. We have also divided up the patch geographically and by organisation. (With all the current changes as the HPA is established, and we work out how best to share the work across the larger Surrey and Sussex area, these arrangements are likely to be subject to review and considerable change for the foreseeable future; but we will endeavour to keep this website up to date with the current arrangements .)
