Four residents have been brought on to the board of directors of a company leading the regeneration of east Brighton.

The board of directors of the not-for-profit company eb4u - East Brighton For You - is in charge of spending the £47.2 million of Government funding on projects to regenerate East Brighton.

The Government hopes the eb4u company will become self-sustaining after the pot of cash expires in 2010.

Four new residents have been co-opted on to the team before formal elections take place in September.

The new members are Moulsecoomb resident Colin Bradford, Manor Farm resident John Roberts, Whitehawk resident Micky Hayman and Moulsecoomb resident Mick Sutton.
