		THE new year heralds a new era in Eyemouth, where the challenge is for local groups such as the Eyemouth Forum to carry on the work done by the Eyemouth East Berwickshire Partnership which was wound up at the end of 2006 when EU funding came to an end.
		For the past five years East Berwickshire has benefited from major European investment to turn around its fortunes as it struggled to cope with the decline in the fishing industry.
		EU funding, however, is now entering a new phase as new countries join and Borders towns such as Eyemouth and Hawick are no longer guaranteed the financial help they have been receiving to help improve their economic, social and cultural opportunities.
