Local Community Events
& Activities 2011-2013: "Footprints in the
Sand"
Why not have a outside walk or activity arranged for your group
on the coast?
This project will help to run tailored outdoor
events for local people that don’t normally
access our internationally important coastline - Thanet's
largest open space! It is aimed
at supporting communities from deprived areas of
Thanet, from the very young to the old, or from different
ethnic backgrounds or for those with disabilities. Find out
more about 'Footprints in the Sand'
partnership project and partners you can contact.
These events will be free for local eligible groups.
