About Destination Ball Hill

Our community group is for everyone who works, lives or plays in Ball Hill and wants to make our area a better, cleaner and more social place.

We started in 2022, aiming to regenerate Ball Hill and build a sense of pride and community through collaboration, sharing, listening.

At our beginning we set some goals and interests that began shaping our purpose:

• making our area a cleaner, easier space to use, including a monthly litter pick

• engaging with business leaders and landlords to link in the business community

• representing issues from the community to local officials

• agreeing good projects to improve the area, such as green spaces, transport plans, and pollution monitoring

• building a creative group to add a visible energy and output to our efforts, and give the area a creative identity 

We Have Already Had Some Projects Bring Results

We collaborated with University of Warwick on a citizens' science project to present the results of air pollution monitoring in the Ball Hill area.

We have already developed active partnerships with the council.

We Will always Change and Adapt

We had had a great start, participating in our first summer  event, and establishing a regular community pop up every Wednesday, and those events are giving us an identity of support and help to the community. 

We know we have more to find out about ourselves, and that will happen with the help and involvement of you the people of Ball Hill. 

We made a start, but really, who Destination Ball Hill is, comes from all of you who live, work, play and have an interest here!

We are residents, businesses, local community leaders as well as friends of Ball Hill, organised in five issue groups, headed by a strategy team:

Community Hub Team: to establish a physical community space

Environment Team: to make Ball Hill a clean, attractive, accessible place

Air Pollution Team: forming a voice to improve air quality

Business Network: making Ball Hill attractive for businesses and customers

Ball Hill Creatives: using creativity to share our vision in the community 

DBH Core Team: enabling the groups to achieve their goals
