  Appointments available on Friday 14th December - contact to book a slot to have an informal chat and to find out more.
  
  Do you have an idea that will improve life for Dover residents or improve the town in some way? Will your idea generate income as it operates? If so, then you may have an idea for a social enterprise - a type of business that is designed to make life better for local people.
  
  This funding is available through @Unltd and @DoverBigLocal.

  Don't bother Howard. I called in and suggested as a social enterprise moving all the Dovorians who spend their time whining about the town to the North East of England where they might have something real to moan about, and filling their houses with people who might at least appreciate the place. They threw me out.
  
  Apparently here's a thin line between social-engineering and ethnic-cleansing and I'd overstepped it.

  I see my post has disappeared, but at least #1 has been amended to give the correct information.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  Consider yourself lucky Jan I have had three posts deleted on this thread, possibly four now.
