Projects

Some our projects and achievements.

The Queen’s Green Canopy

The Queens Green Canopy was an initiative that began in May 2021 in honour of the Platinum jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. It was led by ‘cool earth’ in partnership with the UK Government and the Woodland Trust. Communities, charities, schools, scout groups, councils and landowners were invited to create a network of individual or specimen trees, tree avenues, copses and woodlands.

The campaign encouraged the planting of healthy native trees that would thrive, enhancing the environment and the landscape for generations to come. To help the environment and make local areas greener, people were urged to plant trees across the United Kingdom to create a lasting legacy in honour of the Queen’s leadership.

The 50 native trees and shrubs were paid for and planted by local families and businesses on a very wet Saturday morning in February 2022. We have subsequently registered the project with the Queens green canopy and we were added to the nation map showing all of the tree planting projects across the country. We have a hand-made commemorative plaque on display along with a specially commissioned piece of art work dedicated to the families and business who supported the project.

External refurbishment

Since the internal refurbishment in 2019, the Trustees have been working hard to raise funds to complete much needed work on the building. A massive thanks to JG Pears, Barcode Warehouse, Marshalls of Sutton on Trent, Jamie Walton at Walton Incorporated, the BMA, Newark & Sherwood District Council and Nottinghamshire County Council for their support in reaching our funding target. Also a special mention to Hutchinson Engineering and MS Nickless for their continued support, without Tink and Joe we’d be not in the place we are now. Work is expected to start shortly. Drawings for the refurbishment can be found here.

To help the Charity move forward, the Trustees have developed a Strategic Plan to set short, medium and long term aims. The strategic plan can be found here.

Our volunteers who work hard to make all this happen……..

Chair – Arron Smith


Born and bred in Teesside, I moved to the village in 2016 whilst serving in the Royal Air Force.

My passion is getting people physically active and coming together as a community. My particular focus is getting young people participating in sport and as a father of three daughters, I hope to increase girls participation.

My aim is to build upon recent success by securing the future of the Sports Club building, before expanding the sports facilities offered at Grassthorpe Road, so that we have a community facility to be proud of.

Vice Chair – Damien Ellis


Some information about Damien.

Secretary – Louise Morgan


I grew up in Sutton on Trent until I moved away to pursue a career in nursing until I returned to the area in 2007. I have been a trustee for the sports club since 2021 becoming secretary in 2022.

I am focussed on well-being as well as environmental and sustainability issues. Our green spaces, and the opportunity to engage with nature are essential for positive mental health. The Sports Club provides a fantastic environment for us all to be outside, engage in team sports and to exercise.

I aim to continue improving the site as well as making it environmentally friendly and carbon neutral.
