Providing great support, friendship, recreation and volunteering opportunities in the Derbyshire Dales.
Our services in the Derbyshire Dales offer daytime support and activities based in Bakewell and Matlock.
We offer a flexible range of activities and individual support at our centre and in the community, to suit people's talents, interests and needs. We like to find out what people love to do, then work with them to make it happen.
The service actively connects with people and their communities, with a great programme including:
- Community volunteering
- Sports and leisure
- Arts, crafts and music
- Walking groups, conservation and nature
- Swimming
- Cooking and baking
- Learning and education
- Planning and hosting events.
"I like the coffee mornings and the easter egg hunts are really fun! I really like all my staff and they support me to bake and make pizza."
