Citrey CIC exists to create something Derby doesn’t currently have: a dedicated civic and cultural hub where people of all ages can come together to learn, connect, create and participate in shaping the future of their city.
 

We’re transforming a long-vacant building on Sadler Gate into a permanent home for conversation, creativity, lifelong learning, wellbeing, entrepreneurship and community life.
 

Every contribution helps us bring that vision to life. From opening the doors for public events and workshops, to creating welcoming spaces for young people, community groups, local organisations and residents, your support helps turn an empty building into a thriving community asset.
 

This isn’t just about renovating a building.

It’s about creating a place where ideas are shared, friendships are formed, skills are developed and people feel more connected to their city and to one another.
 

If you believe Derby deserves more spaces for learning, participation, culture and community, we’d love you to be part of the journey.
 

Together, we’re building something that will belong to the city.
