Helping Us to Help Ourselves?

The People of Ramsgate have Spoken (well 65 of them have!). As usual, quite a big wish list in the report on the recent workshops, but short on where-with-all. 

Seriously though, Big Lottery Chiefs are quite concerned that an area like Thanet, with all its issues, are simply not applying for, or winning its share.  The Local GP Health Commissioning body is doing it's bit by trying to consult as many over 50's as it can, so that it can put in a six million pound bid to help this age group.  I would tell you more, but I have been sworn to secrecy!  On the other hand, Big Lottery Chiefs would like your opinion on how they should operate in future to reach those parts others have not (or something like that):-
