60 Trees of Erewash
The competition has now closed. Judging is currently taking place. Finalists will be notified during May. All entrants will be invited to exhibitions in both Ilkeston and Long Eaton during the Jubilee Celebrations. Venues to be confirmed.
Erewash Borough Council's Pride in Erewash initiative is a fantastic campaign with the community at its heart. It aims to create a cleaner, greener and safer borough for our current residents and future generations. Now into its fifth year, the campaign is going from strength to strength with hundreds of residents, partners and volunteers taking part in environmental and community events throughout the year.
The campaign is the driving force behind projects such as the "Adopt a Park' scheme, community clean-ups, graffiti removal, Erewash in Bloom, School Recycling and the successful 24-hour confidential ‘Pride Line’ which enable residents to report fly-tipping and other environmental crime.
Many successful projects have already been delivered as part of the Campaign, the aim of which is to develop a sense of respect and ownership of our environment and improve the quality of life for all in the Borough.
 These Projects include:
- Community Clean Ups
- Graffiti Removal
- Promoting Tidy Business Standards (Food on the Go)
- Environmental Education Projects
- Healthy Life Styles
- Street Scene Improvements
- Recycling
- Erewash in Bloom
- Friends Groups
- Adopt a Park
- Pride Line
- Festival of Light
- Good Town Trader Awards
- Tree Warden Scheme
