D’Key Civic · Swindon community support
Care. Connection. Real community.
D’Key Civic is a grassroots community initiative delivering family events and carefully developing practical support routes for families, elders and young people in Swindon.
Public trust note
Carlton Dwayne Michael Mclawrence Ltd (Company No. 15913309) provides the intended company framework for future formal Civic activity and is currently maintained as dormant.
Legal & governance
Confirmed public activity is currently event-led. Other support routes are introduced only as arrangements and capacity are verified.
New community infrastructure
Community Network: useful Swindon routes in one place.
D’Key Civic is expanding beyond information about its own events. The new Community Network helps residents find established Community Hubs, local organisations and volunteering routes, while giving community groups a practical organisation toolkit.
We complement existing local infrastructure rather than duplicating it. Every external route identifies the actual provider and does not imply D’Key Civic ownership, endorsement or partnership.
Community intelligence · checked 14 September 2026
What’s On, Funding Watch and Community Spotlight.
The Community Network now goes beyond static signposting. Residents can reach current event-discovery routes, while local groups can find funding and organisational-support routes with named providers and check dates kept visible.
Source discipline is public. Civic now publishes the external sources behind this guidance so Ask Nello can route people without presenting third-party information as D’Key-owned.

Read newsWhy we exist
Built from lived experience. Committed to dignity, care, and community.
D’Key Civic exists because hardship, isolation, and starting over with very little can change a person’s life — and because the right support, dignity, and community can change it again. We are building a local circle of care where people feel seen, welcomed, encouraged, and better able to move forward.
