As part of Port of Dover’s commitment to be the Best Port in the World for the benefit of its customers and the community, the Forum was set up to provide a focal point for meaningful and open engagement, and debate between the Port and the local community regarding matters of interest relating to the Port and the local area.

The Forum, consisting of a broad spectrum of local organisations and interests, enables representatives to discuss issues such as port development, supporting local regeneration and community engagement with the Port, and enables Port representatives to develop a better understanding of the needs of its important local community stakeholders. It also provides a welcoming platform for community representatives to put forward their ideas on how the Port, together with its community, can deliver on its commitment and create a future that is both exciting and transformational for Dover as a whole.

If you would like to be considered for the opportunity to represent your community’s interests, please apply in writing with your name, contact details and why you wish to be considered for the position by email to communications@doverport.co.uk or to:

Port and Community Forum, c/o Harbour House, Marine Parade, Dover CT17 9BU
