Derwent Connections Partners
Meet our partner organisations and community projects
As the Derwent connections project continues to grow, we recognise that we would not be able to achieve our vision without the support of the local communities in the Derwent Catchment area. This is why we are striking up new relationships with local groups and projects around the River Derwent to inspire the community to act against flooding. With the help and support of local communities we can make space for nature and water throughout the Derwent catchment alleviating the risks of flooding. Below is an ever-growing list of community groups and projects that we are partnering with. Additionally check out our upcoming events and regular blog posts to find out how you can get involved.
