Introduction<br />
Derry City and Strabane District Council are shaping<br />
the city with horticulture; setting sterling standards<br />
in terms of the organisational, aesthetic and<br />
productive potential of green spaces. The first local<br />
authority on these islands with a focused Green<br />
Infrastructure Plan, the Council ranks environmental<br />
development and sustainability as a top priority.<br />
They have managed to mobilise a movement of<br />
local eco warriors; making waves to normalise<br />
sustainability by helping and inspiring local people<br />
to live in a more environmentally friendly way<br />
through a range of initiatives and campaigns.<br />
They have received recognition for their work over<br />
the last couple of decades, yet remain dogged in<br />
their desire to improve their horticultural offering,<br />
to reduce pollution on the streets and rivers<br />
making the District a place where people are proud<br />
to live and visit.<br />
This portfolio highlights some of the areas we have<br />
been focusing on over the last year.<br />
