December Parwich Film Show ALL IS TRUE
Posted in Films, Memorial hall, Uncategorized on Monday November 25, 2019| Leave a Comment »

Ben Elton’s witty script provides the story for this beautifully shot film. The year is 1613, and Shakespeare is acknowledged as the greatest writer of the age. But disaster strikes when his renowned Globe Theatre burns to the ground. Devastated, Shakespeare returns to Stratford, where he must face a troubled past and a neglected family. Starring Judi Dench, Ian McKellen and Kenneth Branagh. Certificate 12

This is a not very good photo of what I think must be an egret which flew from the brook when I startled it. Has anyone else seen it?

Local Projects Fund
Posted in Uncategorized on Tuesday June 4, 2019| Leave a Comment »
Worthy causes in the Derbyshire Dales are being invited to apply to Derbyshire Dales District Council for funds from its Local Projects Fund.
The Fund enables Derbyshire Dales District Councillors to support community led initiatives in the area they represent. Each year £900 is allocated to each Councillor to allocate to projects or initiatives in their Ward that will benefit the local communities and be valuable to the area.
Applications can be made by local groups that are based within the Derbyshire Dales that can demonstrate community benefit. For example:
- Parish and town councils (for specific projects only)
- Young people’s groups
- Locally based charities
- Benevolent societies
The District Council welcomes applications from organisations who meet the criteria and it’s now easier than ever to apply online at www.derbyshiredales.gov.uk/localprojectsfund where further information is availble
