Remains of Hastings Castle, with the town and pier in the background

Hastings is a seaside town in East Sussex. At the Battle of Hastings, which took place a few miles away in 1066, the forces of William Duke of Normandy (thereafter King William I) defeated the English forces, and King Harold II was killed.

There was a Hastings CHE Group at one time.

The Hastings and Rother Gay Helpline was founded in 1987 (as Hastings Befrienders) and the Hastings and Rother Rainbow Alliance was founded in 2003.
