We get a lot of information and press releases from the County and District Councils and the Peak Park Authority. Many are not of specific interest to our immediate area or are too general for parwich.org. However today there are few that may be of tangential interest to some of our readers, not enough to warrant separate posts, but perhaps worth a brief listing here:
- Tour de France visiting Derbyshire in 2014, though not near to us. Click here for more details.
- Serco agreed to pay £75,000 to cover costs incurred by Derbyshire Dales District Council in tackling a series of problems with the launch of a new waste and recycling service. The good news is the new contract is now working well and, in addition to saving Dales Council Tax payers £385,000 a year, has increased recycling rates to almost 50% – one of the best figures in Derbyshire. Click here for more details.
- Information on the County Council’s autumn term Adult Education courses are now available, click here for County-wide information. Also click here for details of the Adult Education Centres in Derbyshire Dales.
- Derbyshire Dales District Council urges local people of all ages to give new sports a try, as its Wirksworth Leisure Centre stages a free open day on Sunday 28 July.
