Community Roots Van
The Dover District Council Community Roots Van, is a fully equipped office on wheels, helping bring council services to communities across the Dover District. The van is there to assist with tackling social isolation and supporting communities in becoming more digitally inclusive. We'll be providing advice, support (and some fun) at a town or village near you!
