Eastbourne Disability Involvement Group
The Disability Involvement Group (DIG) was formed in February 2007 and is an involvement group for Eastbourne Borough Council. However more recently the DIG has become involved in wider ranging issues.
The DIG meets regularly at Eastbourne's town hall. Members set their own agenda and are heavily involved in areas of discussion such as dropped kerbs, community transport and plans for redevelopment projects across the town.
