Dates and times of the meetings are advertised through parish councils, displayed at local libraries, schools and doctor’s surgeries, promoted on the KCC Community Engagement web pages, on local notice boards and in the press. The meetings give local people the chance to hear about the services KCC and its partners provide in Thanet. Doors always open half an hour before the meeting starts so that people can talk informally with their local county councillors over light refreshments. The KCC Local Board welcomes anyone who wishes to address the meetings and time is allocated throughout the meeting for the audience to ask questions on the presentations given or to raise any other issues or concerns. Thanet Local Board Meetings 2009/10 Attendance at Thanet Local Board meetings in 2009/10 has been very good, with interesting presentations and lively question and answer sessions.

Nick explained that KFRS was in the process of consulting on the initial outcomes of a rolling review of emergency cover and Thanet was one of the first two areas to be looked at. Nick talked about how the fire and rescue service intends to change the services it provides the community and focus more upon what needs to be done in the future to reduce risk to life and make the best use of resources at the same time.

Thanet Local Board Annual Report 2009/10 3 Dreamland Trust. Jonathan Bryant, Project Director, outlined the plans to restore Dreamland, home to the UK’s oldest surviving rollercoaster, as ‘the world’s first heritage amusement park’. With help from partner agencies in Thanet, the Dreamland Trust successfully bid for £3.7m of funding from the Department of Culture, Media and Sport’s ‘Sea Change’ programme. Jonathan told the group that the project to restore the new Dreamland was now well underway and promises to give tourism in Thanet a huge boost and create significant business opportunities for people working locally. Please note: head counts are undertaken at each meeting as well as the use of sign-in sheets but figures remain approximate A significant outcome from October’s meeting 'Making democracy work for young people', (which took place in Local Democracy Week 12-16 October 2009) was the enthusiasm of young people to get involved with the KCC Local Boards. The evening’s agenda was set by KYCC and TYC members who embraced this event fully and, as a result, Kent Youth County Council and Thanet Youth Council now have a regular slot on the Thanet Local Board’s agenda. The Thanet Local Board meetings also provide a good opportunity for local community groups to talk to members and discuss with them any projects they would like funding for, using one or more of the three funding streams the board has available, namely; Member Community Grant, Small Community Capital Projects and Local Schemes Grant. The board also announces its recommendations for Small Community Capital Projects and Local Schemes Grant awards at these meetings. The Thanet Local Board’s agendas, minutes and future meeting dates can be found on the KCC website by visiting: www.kent.gov.uk/communityengagement Member Community Grants Each member can recommend grants from their allowance of £10,000 to be spent on local community initiatives or projects. Expenditure for each member has, as the year progressed, been reported to meetings of the Thanet Local Board. All of the £80,000 available for grants was spent. A summary for each member is shown in Appendix 2. As in previous years, the members have supported a variety of small community projects. Where projects have been Thanet-wide or within the same electoral area, they have often pooled their resources, for example: Launch of the Thanet Athletics Club on 20 April 2010. The club is based at The Marlowe Academy and held every Tuesday evening. Pictured here is Phil Pittock, Chairman of the club and, Jack Green, European Silver Medallist with some aspiring future medallists. This project was supported by Bob Bayford, Charles Hibberd, Michael Jarvis, John Kirby and Chris Wells. Duke of Edinburgh’s Awards Thanet Panel – Annual Awards Presentation.

    Thanet Destination Management Plan Update report from Tourism Works EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This document is a report on activities to date of the Thanet Destination Management Plan (DMP), including the development of the action plans for each of the three priorities, the areas selected for specific focus, the activity being undertaken, the results to date, and the people involved. 1. OVERVIEW OF THE DMP The DMP is about acknowledging and understanding the importance of tourism in Thanet. Thanet District Council Cabinet formally approved the 5-year DMP in September 2013. It aims to maximise tourism opportunities, improve facilities, attract tourism-related inward investment, create resources and connect businesses, to put Thanet firmly on the destination map. It has been agreed that this will be achieved by • ensuring that visitors have a great experience in Thanet, developing new experiences to attract more tourists and targeting new higher spending visitors looking for a short break. • presenting the three towns more strongly together, playing to the strength of each and making it easy for the visitor to get around. • investing in the experience of our beaches - Thanet’s strongest natural assets • prioritising investment in new quality character accommodation to encourage visitors to come and stay for longer. • making the most of Thanet’s location – the natural coastline, the big skies, the proximity to London by high-speed train and the potential new visitors that brings. • stimulate the environment to encourage investment in new quality visitor attractions, visitor experiences and places to stay.
