📍 Conflicting Zones: Where Does Derby Actually End?

www.Derby.support/feedback Start your journey today (Record constructive digital feedback)

A line on a map can tell you which council empties your bins.

But can it tell you where you belong?

That’s the question behind our new Derby Community Hub project: Conflicting Zones.

Because there isn’t really just one Derby.

There’s the Derby defined by official boundaries.

There’s the Derby created by roads, houses and neighbourhoods growing into one another.

And then there’s OUR DERBY — the Derby that exists in the minds of the people who live here.

And those three versions don’t always agree.

That’s where things get interesting. 👀

We’re going to take Derby’s disputed edges and put them to YOU.

Is it Derby? Or isn’t it?

Make your case. Disagree. Defend your corner. Listen to somebody else’s argument. Maybe even change your mind.

Because this project has a second purpose.

We want to get better at disagreeing with each other.

Talking about things we find difficult to talk about.

Being assertive without being aggressive.

Listening without immediately attacking.

Having different opinions without destroying friendships.

Those things matter for friendships, communities and our mental health — and they’re things Derby Community Hub has championed from the beginning.

Eventually, we want to create something rather special:

🗺️ OFFICIAL DERBY
🗺️ PHYSICAL DERBY
🗺️ OUR DERBY

And when we overlay them, we’ll discover Derby’s true…

🔥 CONFLICTING ZONES.

So, Derby…

Where do YOU draw the line?

First disputed territory coming soon. 👀
