Our Business Plan
Our Business Plan
The aim of the Dorset Coast Forum Business Plan is to showcase the strengths and capabilities of the Team, that enable us to work in partnership with local authority departments, partner organisations, businesses and communities. It is also to set out our aims and priorities going forward, to detail the finances of the DCF Team and to set out risks and challenges.
The Business Plan has been prepared by the DCF Co-ordinator and has been approved by the DCF Steering Group. The Steering Group, who meet with the DCF Co-ordinator bi-annually, will then review progress against the Business Plan over 2022-25.
