Chesterfield FC’s Community Trust is helping to inspire and educate children


Community Trust promotes inclusion


Chesterfield FC Community Trust has aligned its goal to make football in Chesterfield accessible for all. The trust recently visited the


following five schools, in association with the African Caribbean Community Association (ACCA): Newbold Church School, Staveley Junior School, New Bolsover Primary School,


Brimington Junior School and Stonelow Junior School. The visits promoted Black


History Month, talking about inspirational BAME figures, both in the UK and worldwide, particularly in sports. Lud Ramsey, Chairman of the ACCA, shared his personal story, including footage of his appearances on Gladiators and Ninja Warrior.


Samantha Spyve, Deputy


Headteacher at New Bolsover School, said: “It was absolutely brilliant, the children were really engaged and asked interesting questions. They loved looking at Lud’s medals and hearing about his career and achievements and watching Gladiators footage.” Keith Jackson, Head of Sport and Activities at the Community Trust,


Conference centre takes on the Three Peaks for charity


Four hiking enthusiasts from The Derby Conference Centre (DCC) – Rebecca Prime, Jessica Wood, Eleanor Sainsbury and Richard Hindley – have taken to the Dales of Yorkshire to raise money for Me&Dee. Through all the blood, sweat and tears they managed to raise an impressive £2,000. Me&Dee is a charity that supports families through


difficult times and circumstances. It organises special memory holidays for people whose time is precious. In the build-up to the big day, the DCC team went


through a rigorous training regime. Throughout the year, the team bested Snowdon, took up veritable residence in the local gym and even marched around Edale’s Kinder Scout trail twice in one stint. If the training was tough, the climb itself was even


more of a challenge. After camping out for two nights and with the elements holding steady, the team began the trek up three mountains – Whernside, Ingleborough and Pen-y-ghent. The peaks themselves have a combined height of 7,064ft – the same distance as reaching the top of Kilimanjaro. Rebecca Prime, Sales and Conference Office Manager,


said: “We think it’s incredibly important to support local charities. But why just hold a bake sale or a BBQ – we wanted to take on a new challenge that none of us had done before. And it’s safe to say we smashed it.”


The DCC team braving the elements for a worthy cause


said: “Equality, inclusion and respect are part of our core values and our recent work during Black History Month is a small part of an ongoing education and PHSE project that we run in schools. “We’re proud to be proactive in


celebrating our heritage, culture and diversity in Chesterfield and want to be at the forefront of promoting this message of acceptance.”


Businesses clean up Nottingham


Members of the East Midlands business community have taken to the streets of Nottingham, donning gloves and litter pickers to take part in a group litter collection. Organised by local


businesses 200 Degrees Coffee and Jennie Holland PR, and with equipment being supplied by Nottingham City Council, the litter pick marked the first rubbish clean-up event of its kind in the area and was attended by 40 volunteers from East Midlands-based firms. Tony Pap, Senior Operational


Manager, at Nottingham City Council, said: “It’s always positive to see businesses banding together to give something back – we always welcome these sort of initiatives that help keep our streets and pathways clean and ensure that waste is disposed of or recycled properly.”
