 On this week's episode:

- A community orchard in Whitwell is starting to take shape
- Barlborough Church is set to stage a Heritage Day that will help people learn about its history and surrounding area
- A problem property in Creswell has been boarded up for three months

We have obtained a court order to board up a Council house in Creswell where drug related activity and anti-social behaviour persisted.
The Closure Order, for Rogers Avenue, Creswell, was granted on 23 August 2023 from South Derbyshire Magistrates Court after the tenant and visitors subjected the local community to continuous anti-social behaviour (ASB) and distress.
Together with the Police, we became aware of a significant number of visitors frequenting the property, sometimes staying for extended periods, as well as the smell of cannabis emanating from the property, shouting and loud music.
