Alvaston North and South Neighbourhood Board
Your local Neighbourhood Board is made up of local councillors, residents and representatives from community organisations and public services
The board:
- leads on behalf of the whole neighbourhood
- agrees the priorities for the neighbourhood
- monitors performance
- influences decisions that reflect the views of local residents
- decides on the vision for your neighbourhood
The Neighbourhood Board received a budget from April 2021. The budget is to enable voluntary and community groups (non-commercial) to apply for funding for projects/events that will both benefit and enable the community and its residents.
If you would be interested in putting together a funding application for consideration of the board, please read the guidance and complete the form:

Alvaston North and South Neighbourhood Forum
Neighbourhood forums take place in the ward if there is an issue that needs a meeting.
When a Neighbourhood Forum is required it will be advertised.
Ward walkabouts
Ward walkabouts is an initiative to strengthen community spirit and build safer communities. This involves Councillors, Neighbourhoods, Derby Homes and the police, together with local residents leading a high profile and visible patrol. The idea behind this is to get back to traditional community values of local people looking out for each other and identifying any problems raised in the area. We will knock on doors, walk, talk, greet and listen. Anyone is welcome to come along. Please contact your Neighbourhood Partnership Officer for information on future dates.
