Dover District Neighbourhood Forums
What's Hot in the district?
Are there any burning issues affecting your community? Let
us know what matters to you.
The Neighbourhood Forums provide an opportunity for local
people and communities to come together and have a say about where
they live and the services they receive.
They represent all the residents in the Dover district and can
discuss a wide-range of local and district wide issues, not
just those involving Dover District Council or Kent County
Council.
We will invite speakers to come to the
meetings to talk and answer questions about specific topics of
interest to you - these can be councillors, council officers,
police, health and others. Past topics include planning, community
safety, active older people, climate change and youth services.
From July 2010, the Forums will hold two fixed meetings a
year (with set topics) and have the opportunity to hold a
further two forum meetings a year. These meetings will be arranged
on an “as and when” basis.
By not tying the Forums down to specific dates, set a year
in advance, they can be more flexible and respond to issues
as they arise and be of more interest to local communities.
Please see the criteria for calling a flexible meeting in the
Protocol and Procedures for the Dover District Neighbourhood
Forums.
We need to know what matters to you.
E-mail any suggestions to: neighbourhoodforums@dover.gov.uk or
contact KCC Community Engagement Manager's Emma
Carey or Anne Charman - please see contact details below.
It would help if you could explain why you
think your Forum should discuss an particular topic and
what you would like to get from the meeting. This will ensure
we focus on the right area and invite the most
appropriate speakers.
The Neighbourhood Forums are also our preferred method of
consulting local residents.
Information is power: come along and find out what is happening
in the district and how it could affect you.
The Forums are a chance for you to “Have Your Say
and Make a Difference”.
