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

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
Oil prices continued to slide on Friday morning, ending the month of May with the largest monthly drop since last November, as trade tensions weigh on investors outlook on the global economy and oil demand.
TIP: Over time water builds up at the bottom of the tank through condensation. To prevent this causing issues, we recommend using a water scavenger which will absorb contaminated water in the tank. Its simple to use, just fix the cord to the tank and drop in the scavenger. For more information please visit the club shop.
Rate: £0.4690 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

There will be a memorial service at Parwich church at 9.30 am on Sunday 2nd June 2019 where it is hoped all those people who knew Christine will attend to celebrate her life.
Initially at 09.30am the Ashes of Christine will be buried and also the blessing of a seat that is to be installed in her memory followed by a short Service in Church.
Thereafter we shall all adjourn to the Parwich British Legion where there will be refreshments.
Christine had died of her cancer on the 22/9/18 and we had enjoyed previously in October a cremation service at Arnold in Nottingham conducted by the Revd Christopher Harrison formerly our Parwich Vicar .
Colin hopes that many persons will attend, if not at the church, at the British Legion thereafter in memory of Christine whose presence so many of us enjoyed over the 30 years se was in Parwich.

With a turnout of 34.7%, only slightly more than 2014, the Brexit Party took over the two seats previously held by UKIP and won a third from the Tories, who lost both theirs. The LibDems regained the seat they lost in 2014, and Labour held their one seat.
Congratulations to our new MEPs here in the East Midlands Region:
- Rory Palmer (Labour)
- Bill Newton Dunn (LibDem)
- Annunziata Rees-Mogg (The Brexit Party)
- Jonathan Bullock (The Brexit Party)
- Matthew Patten (The Brexit Party)
