Edwards Lane Community centre

We are pleased to announce that Chayah group are now running the Edwards lane community centre. It officially opened  on 17^th  June and the event was well attended by local residents and councillors.  There are regular activities held for the community for all ages.

Sherwood Day of action

We had our Day of action on the 6^th July this year. It was a full day event and the school children of Seely Primary school actively participated in the litter pick, and they did a great job! There were deep cleans undertaken, fire and safety checks at targeted properties, a community play session delivered by the Toy library and community engagement through street stalls outside the Co-op

Jelly Fish Theatre

Once again the Jelly Fish Theatre  had their  Jungle book show at Woodthorpe park for all! It was well attended and there were lots of free activities and stalls with information for the community. A community event enjoyed by all!  We really look forward to hosting them again next year.

Streets for People programme making good progress

 Over 70 resurfacing schemes have been completed so far across the city.

In 2021, the council successfully bid as part of a competitive process for money from the Government’s Levelling Up fund to improve streets and local town centres, and make walking and cycling easier and safer.

Nottingham City Council has approved £11million of improvements to make our neighbourhoods greener, safer, better places to get around.

We are also setting money aside for tree work and bin replacements. You can find out more by visiting the streets for people website.
