Education Futures Trust (EFT) aims to improve the life chances of children, families and vulnerable adults in Hastings and the surrounding area by helping them realise their potential and overcome the social, emotional and educational barriers to achievement.

Focusing on the needs of the most disadvantaged and excluded residents; we build resilience to enable sustainable change. We work holistically, providing learning through forest schools, conservation work, our Shore Academy, sport and catering experiences, whilst offering projects that include:
​

• coaches who provide 1-1 intensive support for adults with multiple issues

• a parenting practitioner who builds positive child-parent relationships

• alternative provision for children struggling in mainstream education

• an NHS Sussex funded Health and Wellbeing Hub, which involves coordinating systems and services in north-east Hastings
