Meeting Points are social drop-ins in villages and coastal communities throughout Romney Marsh and parts of the
south of Ashford borough. These Meeting Points are run by volunteers, supported by CARM's Meeting Points coordinator,
Mrs Emma Wiltshire.Meeting Points provide a local point
of contact for meeting old friends and new, in a friendly and welcoming environment. They are not 'clubs' -
everyone is welcome, and refreshments are available.
Meeting
Points also provide a useful source of information and access to a range of services. There is a well-stocked Information
Point (with useful leaflets), and regular outreach 'surgeries', including Hi-Kent (for hearing aid batteries and tube
cleaning); Citizen's Advice and others. Local Community Wardens often drop-in, and there is a programme of guest
speakers who visit to give information about their services.
