Enjoy gardening?
Fancy growing your own fruit and vegetables? Well, here’s your chance. Jessop Street Allotments Association are accepting applications from local residents who are interested in renting an allotment plot. As well as tending their plots, Jessop Street allotments members also take an active interest in supporting the local community. We have teamed up with Codnor Primary School and have allocated them a piece of land so that a class of young children can learn the basics of gardening and get to understand how ecology and nature work together to influence the environment. A group of our volunteers have also recently tidied and re-planted the planters on Codnor market place to make our village look a little brighter. If you are interested in joining our friendly group, contact Eddie Pearce on 07796 636565 or email eddie-pearce@hotmail.com for an application form. |

‘The waste collection teams are doing a fantastic job under extreme pressures, the crews have been faced with some streets being impossible to get the vehicles down due to the number of cars parked as more and more people are staying at home. Whilst the authority is going to send out the attached flyer can all residents try to help wherever possible when parking their cars and vehicles on their streets’

The defibrillators at the clock tower and the community and sports building are now registered with the ambulance service and are fully operational. The defibrillator is stored in a locked vandal-proof enclosure inside the kiosk, and when a member of the public calls 999 to report a suspected cardiac arrest the operator will give them the combination to open the enclosure and access the defibrillator. It is simple and safe to use and no training is required as the machine gives clear spoken instructions. |
