Company activities and impact

During our third year of operation we have stabilised and embedded the offer that Crow Wood CIC is providing to the community. Amongst other activities, we have:Continued to develop local green spaces, including our allotment plots and the Duesbury nature reserve and play area. Our volunteers secured over £12,000 funding to renovate the derelict Mayvale play area, and further funding for brush cutting to keep paths through the nature reserve open and accessible to a wide range of users. We have seen vandalism at the public sites continue to fall as local residents use the area more for leisure and relaxation as well as using the cleared through-paths as convenient traffic-free active travel journey routes.Continued to run home education and vulnerable user groups regularly at our allotments base, with further collaboration with Air Arts at the Royal Derby Hospital enabling children to display their artworks in the children’s hospital.Developed a new community garden at Boyer Street in collaboration with Derby Homes and Renew.We have continued to work to improve green spaces and provision within two local schools, including consulting and helping with funding applications for playground and orchard trees.We have welcomed visitors and work experience volunteers from the University of Derby and social prescribing hubs.
