The Radnor and Riviera Residents' Association was formed on 4th August 2008. It is an entirely voluntary association. Its aims are to safeguard and promote the common interests of residents living in the area regarding problems including housing, community safety, and the environment. It works as a pressure group to help maintain the character of the area and to represent residents on issues that jointly affect us:

• Planning Issues
• Parking & Traffic
• Neighbourhood Watch Scheme
• Vandalism
• Community Safety
• Condition of the roads and pavements
• Street lighting
• Street Cleaning

Its objective is to make it as easy as possible for every resident to take a full and active part in RRRA including any social events that may be organized. By supporting one another in many ways e.g. by attending meetings or writing on issues of common concern, we have achieved a considerable amount - including the area’s inclusion as part of Sandgate’s Conservation Area and helping persuade both the Parish and Shepway Councils that we have an unique area and wish its character to be fervently respected including its precious trees and green spaces


Membership

Membership is open to all residents of Radnor Cliff, Radnor Cliff Crescent, and the Riviera in Sandgate. There is no charge to become a member – simply get in touch with the secretary with your email and contact details. Financial contributions will occasionally be requested on a voluntary basis according to need. Donations are always welcomed to help cover administrative costs. All money raised by or on behalf of RRRA is only applied to further its objectives.

The above form the Committee of the RRRA who meet according to need to discuss common issues and for example, select representatives to meet with council officers and local councillors to discuss current issues of concern to residents in the area. For planning applications attracting serious concern of residents, a sub-committee is formed representing the neighbours immediately affected by the development who then in turn choose a chairman responsible for organising meetings of the sub-committee.

Keeping you updated

An e-newsletter keeps everyone up-to-date with progress on current issues and fully informed of all matters of interest. A separate e-newsletter is circulated on behalf of our Neighbourhood Watch. For those that do not have an email address, please arrange with a neighbour to print out the RRRA emails & e-newsletters and deliver them to you.


Please either write or preferably email your contact details and telephone number to the RRRA secretary Joanna@arrivee.co.uk or to 12 Radnor Cliff, Sandgate, CT20 2JJ.

We look forward to hearing from you.
