Engagement Round 2 Spring 2025
Engagement Round 2 begins with phase 1 of the delivery stage of the project with a 6 week long baseline survey period starting on 26th May giving the community the opportunity to have their say. Events hosted by DCF will provide an opportunity for the community to see the work that has continued behind the scenes since spring of 2024 and meet new additions to the project team.
2024 created strong links within the community and we look forward to reconnecting for a successful 2025.
The current Swanage Landslide Group consisting of representatives from the local Coastguard team, the Environment Agency, Dorset Council and Swanage Town Council, the National Trust and DCF will expand to include representatives from the community and transform into our Future Coast North Swanage Steering Group. If you are interested in the opportunity to represent your community on this Steering Group please look out for nomination forms at our forthcoming events or contact Project Officer Sara directly sara.parker@dorsetcouncil.gov.uk
