We recently joined Derby Cathedral in hosting the city’s first Faith In Housing event.

The event brought organisations together who work with people who are experiencing homelessness in Derby.

The aim of the event was to generate discussions between organisations on how they can work together to target the proportion of funding that has been pledged to Derby following Andy Burnham’s announcement on ending rough sleeping.

Thank you to everyone who attended the event. Click below to read the full article.

As our Sitting in the Landscape project resumes following a summer break, here’s a previous time when Growing Lives participants visited Bennerley Viaduct: The Iron Giant.

A quarter of a mile long, The “Iron Giant” is Britain’s longest iron viaduct. Standing 18 metres above the Erewash Valley, it offers great views across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire.

Using the newly opened visitor centre, the session began with photographer Jon Legge explaining some photographic techniques, including the rule of thirds, perspective and forced perspective and Dutch angles. He had also brought along several books on photographing industrial and post-industrial landscapes as inspiration.

Following the introduction, participants were then split into pairs and allocated a camera before setting off along the Viaduct, to explore, going as far as the canal.

Following some additional photography after lunch, participants returned to Growing Lives. Some of the photographs from the morning session were then printed and displayed to create a mood board, generate discussion and ideas for future displays.

It was a brilliant day of creativity, which it gave the participants the opportunity to see the landscape from a different perspective. 📷

With thanks to the Arts Council England for their generous support.

Talk Money Week is an annual campaign to encourage people to have more open conversations about money.

This year’s theme is “It All Counts" where the focus is on realistic manageable actions.
The campaign can provide people with links to support and resources to enable them to take the correct practical steps to improve their confidence talking about money and their own financial situation.

Here at Derventio Housing Trust we encourage and support residents to talk about money through one-to-one support sessions, including guidance with budgeting, debt reduction and saving money.
