Clay Cross Parish Council Working For Your Community

Clay Cross Parish Council provides your local services. We strive to make Clay Cross a better place to live, work and play. Whilst Clay Cross is now largely administered by the North East Derbyshire District Council, Clay Cross Parish Council spends much of its time and resources on local facilities and services for the betterment of the area.

One example of this is liaising with and supporting where possible, local community groups, such as the Kenning Park Community Group.

Kenning Park Community Group are working towards the regeneration and development of Kenning Park and Meadow Farm Fishing Pond. Their objectives are:

• To promote the park as an attractive, functional and developing amenity within Clay Cross

• To support community activities within the Park

• To raise the profile of Clay Cross

• To undertake any activities that fit within the aims that will benefit the Clay Cross area

• To encourage sustainable wildlife development, habitat enrichment, conservation and biodiversity of the area

Local Groups such as this are integral to the parish to ensure the area can be enjoyed by all.

Declutter

Turn all your coathangers around and as you wear the items, replace the opposite way. Any items facing the original way in 3 months time can be upclycled or sent to a charity shop

Rather than looking at the house as a whole, tackle 1 room and break it down into tasks.

The tidying process will be much more satisfying as you can see you progress reusing bags is brilliant for the environement but with all the extra use they can get a little grimy! If they aren’t machine washable fill the sink with soapy water, swish them about and, dry them and bobs your uncle!
