A big thank you to Kathryn for welcoming us onto Spire Radio.

Jessica and Audrey had the opportunity to join Kathryn to talk about the work we do at ACCA, our upcoming events, community activities and the support we provide throughout the year.

It was a pleasure to share more about our organisation and connect with listeners across the local area.

Thank you for having us, and we hope everyone who tuned in enjoyed listening and learning more about ACCA and the work happening within our community.

We're proud to share that our Windrush display is now on show at Chesterfield Library.

A huge thank you to Sarah for joining us for the photo and helping us celebrate this important piece of local history.

The display highlights the stories, contributions and legacy of the Windrush generation, helping to ensure these experiences continue to be recognised, remembered and shared within our community.

If you're visiting the library, we'd love for you to take a look. Don't forget to snap a photo with the display and share it with us in the comments or tag us in your posts.

Seeing the community engage with these stories means so much to us.

Together, we can keep these important conversations alive and continue celebrating the individuals and families who helped shape the community we know today.

The story of the Windrush Generation is a story of courage, resilience and contribution.

Thousands of people travelled to the UK to help rebuild a country after the war, becoming part of the fabric of our communities, workplaces, public services and everyday lives. Their legacy can still be seen today in the diversity, culture and opportunities that enrich our society.

Our Windrush Gala is an opportunity to recognise that legacy, celebrate those who came before us, and ensure their stories continue to be shared with future generations.

Whether you have a personal connection to the Windrush Generation or simply want to learn more about an important part of British history, we invite you to join us for an evening of reflection, celebration and community.

This Volunteer Appreciation Week, we want to say a heartfelt thank you to every single person who gives their time, energy and kindness to support ACCA.

Our volunteers are at the heart of what we do. From helping at events and luncheon clubs, supporting community activities, welcoming people through the doors, setting up spaces, serving meals, sharing skills, offering ideas and simply being there for others your contribution matters more than you may realise.

We also want to recognise the volunteers who support Chesterfield Foodbank, which is based at our centre on Monday evenings. Their time and commitment help create another valuable space for people to come together, connect and feel supported.

Community work does not happen because of one person. It happens because people care enough to show up.

To all of our volunteers, past and present, thank you for helping us create a space where people feel welcomed, supported, represented and valued.

We appreciate you this week and every week. ❤️

This week at our Luncheon Club, our members enjoyed food from Saffron Kitchen Chesterfield CIC.

Our luncheon club is about more than just a meal. It’s a chance for people to come together, connect, share conversation and enjoy food in a welcoming space.

We’re always looking to work with local businesses who can bring something special to our sessions. Whether you offer Caribbean food, Asian food, homemade favourites, desserts, spice mixes, catering platters or something completely different, we’d love to hear from you.

Supporting small local businesses matters to us, and our luncheon club is a lovely way to introduce your food to our community.

If you’re a small business, caterer or food provider and would like to collaborate with us, please get in touch.

Let’s keep building community through food, culture and connection.
