Derby was built on... Culture Showcase
A showcase piece to communicate how Derby was built. This would include a showcase of the people, their cultures as contributors to what Derby is today, the different migrations of people and how these came about. A show of the benefits derived from welcoming culture - a dedicated, motivated and committed people from global communities. These communities "make Derby" and have "put in" to the very essence "we have Derby" - Culture is fundamental to the city we think is worth the investment and effort to discuss today.

City of making
base cultural activities around the city of culture concept so that people feel part of the heritage - use stories of innovation as inspiration to empower todays makers. Do not forget traditions of making from the many diverse communities living in and around Derby.
Creativity and wellbeing
Suggest extending the area to the south east to include Royal Crown Derby and the Arboretum, create a wellbeing zone with green transport links from the Arboretum/ Royal Crown Derby into city. Regenerate the area connecting to the railway as an area of multi ethic crafts and creativity with artisanal making at its heart
