New York, 1961. Against the backdrop of a vibrant music scene and tumultuous cultural upheaval, an enigmatic 19-year-old from Minnesota arrives with his guitar and revolutionary talent, destined to change the course of American music. He forges intimate relationships with music icons of Greenwich Village on his meteoric rise, culminating in a groundbreaking and controversial performance that reverberates worldwide. Timothée Chalamet stars and sings as Bob Dylan in James Mangold’s A COMPLETE UNKNOWN, the electric true story behind the rise of one of the most iconic singer-songwriters in history.
Congratulations to Alan and his team at the Royal British Legion Parwich, on achieving an incredible 4th consecutive CAMRA Ashbourne & District Club of the Year 2025. Voted for by CAMRA members and presented by Graham Burke, Chairman. Alan and all his staff work tirelessly to make the club a centrepiece of this small community and always give a warm welcome to both members and visitors alike.

Hello, I’m looking for help to take my old couch to the tip, and then to Manchester, to pick up a couch and a few other things from my daughter’s house. Can anyone help? Or know of a man with a van.
I understand that there might be an interest in these concrete slabs and rubble for hard core (for farmers?). Please make contact if you would like it. Free to collect from the Old Farmhouse. 390388 Needs to go asap.
It’s Jackie, Gill Simpson’s daughter here. A few people have expressed an interest in buying one of mums paintings. I am at the Old Farmhouse this week for if anyone wants to come and view. We also have lots of other stuff which you may be interested in! Do contact me on Jackie.Bateman1@aol.com or on the landline this week 390388. Thanks very much Jackie

This weekend’s rate is £0.5379 ppl* for the Parwich, Tissington & Bradbourne Heating Oil Club
Oil prices continue an upward trajectory this week with Brent crude just over $73 a barrel as US Tariffs spark oil supply concerns. However the Pound continues to hold up against the US Dollar, reducing some of the price rises of kerosene to UK customers.
Top up before the Easter rush: With Easter less than a month away, we recommend ordering soon if you wish to beat the increased demand and delivery timelines around Easter. Estimated delivery times are currently 7 to 12 working days from when club orders close on Monday, and are subject to weather and supply conditions. If you are low, or have less than 6 weeks supply left, this order is not suitable.

pleased to announce that we have now built Full Fibre broadband to over 250 premises across the Parwich exchange area. Delighted to announce that this also includes the villages of Pikehall and Alsop en le Dale. Recently, through support of the community we secured a significant number of pledges which has enabled us to deliver services to Parwich and Alsop.
Our intention is to continue to build over the coming weeks and months, however we are still a bit short of our funding target which means there is a risk that we may not be able to provide Full Fibre services to the other communities and isolated premises connected to the Parwich exchange. Openreach encourage people to pledge their support for the scheme if they are intending to order services.
The pledge site remains open Connect My Community (openreach.com), people who haven’t pledged yet, but intend to order Full Fibre services, can pledge prior to ordering as this will help obtain the required funding and hopefully hit the target. See further information attached about the scheme.
Appreciating that most people are unclear about the monthly costs once Full Fibre services become available so it would be worth reaching out to your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to see what packages are available. A lot of ISPs will upgrade their customers to Full Fibre at no additional charge once it becomes available so worth checking with them. A number of people have already ordered services in the village of Parwich so hopefully people have started to mention this through word of mouth etc.
A link to a list of providers using our network is below.
In terms of areas that have been enabled, people can check whether Full Fibre services are available by following the link below and inserting their postcode and selecting their address. If the response confirms Full Fibre Broadband available as per example below, then they can contact their ISP to upgrade. Some providers may have already contacted their customers.
We would like to invite anyone interested in helping us to organise events in the village, including Wakes week to come along to the Carnival and Recreation Committee AGM on Thursday 24th April, 7.30pm at Parwich Royal British Legion.
If you have any questions please email Lucy M at lucywigley@googlemail.com
Have you signed up to our Garden Waste Scheme for 2025/26 yet?
You should receive your sticker around 10 days after signing up and this should be displayed on your green bin from 1st April.
If you haven’t received your sticker by 1st April, crews have been advised to check on their system whether residents have signed up and collect bins that are presented where the resident has a subscription even if there is no sticker.

I am very excited to be moving to the village next week. I am hoping someone might be able to help me. I have 2 mini Shetland ponies who may need a home; is there anyone who might be able to rent me a bit of land please or who might like them as companions?
Please can we remind people to look after and respect the equipment on the hard play area. The school had a multi school netball tournament on Tuesday and every single netball/basketball net had been taken apart or broken. There is another event on Tuesday so please if you are using it and have to move equipment, do it carefully so everyone can make the best use of the facilities. If things are broken please report them to the Parish Council clerk@parwichparishcouncil.org.uk
Does anyone have any spare common garden mint roots? If so, please let Emma and Rob know on 390203 / 07812 996851 and we can collect. Alternatively, you are very welcome to drop them round to Pond Cottage.
Kath and Owen’s farm dog went missing around 10 am this morning. He’s a red and white collie, he’s old and completely deaf, he’s very friendly and likely to be a bit confused. If you’ve seen him please call 390286.
