Afghan citizens’ resettlement scheme

As a District Council, we, along with neighbouring local authorities are ready to play our  part in the success of the national Afghan citizens’ resettlement scheme and help a number of families settle in the Dover area. We have been working with   Government, Kent County Council and local support providers over the last few weeks to make the necessary arrangements. You can find out more about our work here.
