Dover District Neighbourhood Forums
Got something to say about where you live?
Tell us about the issues that affect your community and what
matters to you.
The Neighbourhood Forums provide an opportunity for local
people and communities to influence the decisions that affect them.
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 chosen
by 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.
Let us know what matters to you so we can
arrange meetings relevant, and of interest, to you. Please
forward your suggestions to neighbourhoodforums@dover.gov.uk or
contact KCC Community Liaison Managers' Emma Carey or Anne Charman.
It would help if you could explain why you
would like a 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.
Alternatively you can ask a question at your Neighbourhood Forum
meeting. Some meetings take questions after presentations as well
as a general question and answer session at the end of the meeting.
We would suggest however that if your question is complicated you
contact Emma Carey or Anne Charman before the
meeting.
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”.
Details of your Neighbourhood Forum Representatives can be found
by following the link to each forum:
We need your comments and suggestions to make sure these
meetings are relevant, and of interest to, you. Please let us
know what you would like to discuss.
