It is a fantastic success and there is no doubt this will just grow and grow and grow

We now have 16 members at the Chesterfield Club which is fantastic! In order to take any more members we would need a bigger room and another regular volunteer, both of these are being sourced at the moment so that we can grow even more

Unfortunately we had to change the venue from The Spot and Derby, we tried The Living Lounge for a while but this was not successful due to overheads.

Just Good Food is a small Café and Delivery service which has been introduced to provide funds for the Charity but predominantly for our members to have the opportunity to gain skills in cooking and a working environment. This has progressed well over the initial six months, we have employed another member of staff to support this also supplying employment in the area

Fun Sports had been running for over a year without any program in place which did work well but we wanted to add some structure so that when our members joined us they knew what to expect on that day and could also choose when they would like to attend according to their preferences. We still do some adhoc activities to keep the element of surprise

Very quickly developed and already has 13 members. Brilliant club held at our main office with access to our equipment at all times

Having spent many happy years at the Adult Education Centre in Bolsover the club has grown in both numbers and different activities, meaning they needed a bigger room. Having now moved we can encourage more members to join us at our Bolsover Club for more information please contact us

We didn’t move far, we just moved downstairs to allow us more office space, storage space, the area required to hold a club and a working kitchen to allow us to open the café. We spend a lot of time transferring rooms, one in particular is regularly changed from a café to a club room and now we also offer it to be rented as a meeting room. An indication of just how versatile and resourceful we are!
