Are you searching for work? Or looking to change jobs?
 We've got more than 300 vacancies at the county council. There could be one that's right up your street.
We're looking for social workers, school catering assistants, care workers, business services assistants, solicitors and more. Why not have a look?
There's still time for you to have your say in our Homes for the Future consultation.
If you’re a homeowner and you live in Derbyshire then we want to know what support you need to make your home more energy efficient.
Together with the county’s eight district and borough councils, we're asking local homeowners what they think would help them to make home improvements needed to reduce their energy use.
Between 20-25% of carbon emissions in Derbyshire come from housing so it’s a key area the councils want to tackle to help meet the target of becoming a net zero county by 2050.
The closing date for the online consultation is Friday 20 January 2023.

You're also being asked what you think about a plan to improve cycling and walking networks across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire.
The proposed network includes both new cycle links and improvements to existing routes to create cycling and walking routes that are appealing to all.
The plan will then be used to support funding bids to help develop and deliver the proposed schemes. The survey is open until 8 March.

Our award-winning museum and art gallery at Buxton saw more than 30,000 visitors through its doors in 2022. Were you one of them?
Whether you've already been to our museum and gallery in Terrace Road, or if you haven't, we recommend a visit.
With an ever-changing exhibition programme there's always something new to discover.
And the museum hopes to boost the number of young and family visitors this year, after setting up a new play area for under-fives, and, instead of the unfriendly ‘do not touch signs’ used in museums in the past, added ‘please touch signs’ and ‘open this drawer, see what’s inside’ signs, encouraging you and your family to explore.

If you took part in our consultation about a relief road for Ashbourne, you'll be glad to hear that plans have taken a step forward.
We've submitted a pre-planning application for the development, which is designed to help tackle congestion in the town.
We're proposing a single carriageway road with separate provision for pedestrians and cyclists along the preferred route stretching from the A52 Mayfield Road to the A515 Buxton Road close to Sandybrook Hall.
You probably know that your council tax helps to pay for policing in Derbyshire.
That's why Derbyshire’s Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) now wants your thoughts on the policing budget for 2023-24.
Fill in the survey to say how much council tax you think would be the right amount to pay to maintain the current standard of policing and to make improvements. The consultation closes on Monday, 16 January.
