DRCET was born in 2004 to help the people of Yoker, Scotstoun and Whiteinch in the West of Glasgow implement their 20 year Environmental Vision. Since that time we have gone on to deliver a wide range of projects and services, many of which have contributed to the Environmental Vision. In addition we know operate over a wider area which incorporates the West and West and Central Community Planning Partnership areas.
Our vision is of vibrant, thriving and resilient communities where people are inspired and empowered to get active, get involved and make a difference for their communities, future generations and the planet.
Our mission is to protect and enhance the local environment and to increase the wellbeing and resilience of local people and communities.
Our current objectives are:
* To protect and enhance the local environment
* To increase the wellbeing and resilience of local people and communities
* To be an excellent organisation that delivers high quality services and added value to the people and communities we serve
The DRCET team is made up of 4 volunteer directors, 3 staff, sessional workers and volunteers who help deliver the wide range of work that we do.
DRCET is a recognised Scottish Charity and a Company Limited by Guarantee registered in Scotland. As such we are regulated by both Companies House and OSCR (Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator). You can view our entry on the Scottish Charity register here (Charity No SC035954)
We are governed by a board of volunteer directors who are responsible for the governance and strategy of DRCET. They are responsible for making sure that DRCET is administered effectively and can account for our activities and outcomes. The board is elected every year by our members at our Annual General Meeting.
