"Following on from last month’s constructive meeting in Birmingham with disabled boaters, Matthew Symonds (boating policy and engagement manager) is heading to London on 7 November to get more views about disabled boaters’ experience of boating on our waterways. If you’ve got something to say on the subject, you’ll find him at the Pirate Castle in Camden between 3.30pm and 5.30pm. If you can’t make it but would like to give your views please email matthew.symonds@canalrivertrust.org.uk. "

A General?

[Mac of Cygnet]

Well, he's obviously prioritising face to face engagement with vunerable stakeholders, innit?

Engagement is the latest in corporate speak. It indicates organisations that have woken up to the fact that they cannot take public awareness/support/involvement for granted and have to be much more proactive rather than just looking inwards to operational matters.

Developing 35mm films?

Stakeholders are of course part of the mob of villagers you see in any good Dracula film, on their way up to the castle to get Count Dracula. Others in the mob hold flaming torches to light the way, or pitchforks presumably as a sort of general weapon to use against Igor and other minions. But the stakeholders are key to the operation as their job is to impale Count Dracula. Hence the phrase "key stakeholders".
