Attend an in-person event to share your thoughts on nature in your area!

We want to hear about what is important for nature in your area, and what your priorities are for nature in Derby and Derbyshire. We are keen to hear from as many organisations and individuals as possible.

We are holding 5 place-based workshops arranged around the county – each session will focus on specific parts of the county (as shown on the map above), but will follow a similar structure, tailored to that specific locality. You are welcome to join whichever suits most based on areas of knowledge, interest and expertise.

Monday 9th September, 1:00pm – 4:00pm Hasland Village Hall, Chesterfield, S41 0AY South Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire, and Derbyshire Coal Field / South Magnesian Limestone Plateau
