We had a lovely walk around Castleton today, even though the weather was more suited to ducks! We still managed to see some of the lovely countryside and views of Peveril Castle.
We'll be heading out to Parsley Hay and along the Tissington Trail with hopefully some drier weather in July. If you'd like to come along get in touch as places are limited.

🌟 A Huge Thank You to Our Incredible Volunteers! 🌟

We want to take a moment at the start of Volunteers Week to express our gratitude to each and every volunteer who has generously given their time and energy, to support our community.
Whether you've driven someone to an appointment, given a helping hand at our groups, organising fundraising events, or simply being there when someone needs support— it makes a world of difference.
Thank you for making our community stronger, kinder, and more connected.
