HBS held their AGM in January and discussed the forthcoming year and vote in our committee. The overall success of the society is built around its members and there is no shortage of support to make the magic happen.

HBS Social Evenings
HBS Darts Evening @ The Crown Hailsham
HBS Socials Captain, Jo Salmons, organised a fantastic evening event at The Crown Pub in Hailsham on 21 Feb 2026. The night consisted of rounds of darts played by pairs randomly picked from the society members. This was the first night of this type and was a huge success. The outright winners were our Captain of Street Collections, Liz and our very own Chairman, Bob. There were other prizes up for grabs throughout the night and it was well represented by our society members. The society is not all about the bonfire celebrations in October and November, there are many events we get involved in and great get togethers like this one to have a great time!
