This summer, Mayor Claire is bringing the East Midlands to life, making it easier for people to see what’s happening, step outside, and feel part of their community. Across our towns, cities, villages and neighbourhoods, there are already thousands of activities taking place. But too often, people simply don’t know they’re there.
Mayor Claire’s Summer of Sport is about changing that.
Active Derbyshire and Active Notts are working with Mayor Claire Ward, Mayor of the East Midlands, and her team to create a single, visible picture of what’s happening locally, so more residents can
- Discover opportunities on their doors
- Feel confident to turn up
- And take part in community life
If you have an event or session running and you would like it to be considered for inclusion as part of this campaign please tell us about it by completing the form below.
Please take a few minutes to submit any activities, events or sessions running before the end of August, especially those that are:
- Open and welcoming
- Easy for local people to take part in
- Free or low cost
Once we have collated this information, we’ll be pulling it together in an online programme which will be shared as part of Mayor Claire’s Summer of Sport campaign across Derby and Derbyshire, Nottingham and Nottinghamshire via the Mayor’s Office.
