The Port and Community Forum is looking for two local independent members of the public with an interest in the Port to apply to join this independent Forum.

As part of the Port of Dover’s commitment to be the Best Port in the World for the benefit of its customers and the community, the Forum provides 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 Port and Community Forum consists of a broad spectrum of local organisations and interests, covering issues such as port development, local regeneration, and wider community engagement with the Port. The Forum enables the Port to develop a better understanding of the needs of its important local community stakeholders. It 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.

If you would like to be considered for the opportunity to represent your community’s interests, please apply with your name, contact details and why you wish to be considered for the position to cosec@doverport.co.uk. Applications will be subject to a ballot by the existing members at the next meeting of the Port and Community Forum. The deadline for applications is 25th January 2018.
