Events and Festivals

We run a three week play scheme during the summer holidays, in an area of New Mills that is known to have a number of social issues, low income households, poverty of opportunity and anti-social behaviour. Over the duration of the 3 weeks we ask various organisations to put programs and sessions together that engages with children through various sports and activities in a fun way helping them overcome the issue of feeling that they are not 'good at sports'.

As an organisation we aim to support as many other groups and events occurring in our community. We take part in all the main festivals in New Mills such as the Carnival, the Torrs Youth festival, the New Mills Art Trail, the One World Festival etc. We also ran Santa’s grotto last Christmas with all our volunteers dressed as elves! We also support other groups in the surrounding areas such as Street by Streets ‘Thank You Buxton’ event.
