Dreamland Wakes Up
The new Dreamland Trust
Project Director, Jonathan Bryant, will be outlining plans
to restore Dreamland as “the world's first heritage
amusement park” at a Thanet & East Kent Chamber business
breakfast on Wednesday 24th March 2010. With the project
already underway following the award last November of £3.7m
by the Department for Culture Media and Sport, Jonathan will
outline the latest details that promise to give a huge boost
to in-bound tourism in Thanet. Widely viewed as the ideal
man for the job, Jonathan brings with him senior management
experience at Birmingham’s Thinktank Science Museum, the
Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust, Dundee’s Contemporary Art
Gallery and a host of community initiatives. He is convinced
that the new Dreamland should be run ‘as a business that
stands on its own two feet’. Local businesses are set to
benefit significantly from the increased footfall and raised
profile. The Dreamland Wakes Up business breakfast will
start at 0730 hrs at the Fayreness Hotel, Kingsgate, near
Broadstairs. Tickets cost £12.00 for Chamber members and
£15.00 for non-members. Payment is accepted in cash or by
cheque on the door. To book a place, email
manager@tekc.co.uk
with the subject line ‘Dreamland Breakfast’ and the names of
those wishing to attend. Non-members should give full
company contact details.
