Derbyshire Now – 3rd October 2025 Edition

Snow warden volunteers needed

We’re looking for volunteers throughout the county to help clear snow and ice from Derbyshire’s roads and pavements this winter as part of our Snow Warden scheme.

We’d like to hear from residents and community groups willing to help keep their communities safe when bad weather hits to supplement work carried out by the council’s own gritting teams and farmer contractors.

Snow wardens get involved in:

• clearing snow and ice from their community’s pavements
• reporting local weather conditions through the council’s website
• co-ordinating volunteers to clear snow and distribute grit
• reporting empty grit bins.

Town and parish councils, schools and other community groups interested in volunteering can find out more and sign up by sending an email to snow@derbyshire.gov.uk
