British Safety Council – Seize The Opportunity Award 2022
The lockdown of March 2020 could have been a crisis for DCRT as our strong community engagement and volunteering programme is mainly built around encouraging people to get out and enjoy natural heritage and participate in community events and activities. Yet, the lockdown meant this had to stop. So, DCRT changed the way weworked and re-wrote their engagement plan, earning the Trust this award.
