Giving World provides the opportunity for those in struggling circumstances to access goods donated by businesses and public sector organisations free of charge.
We have launched a brand new website to make it even easier for charities and other not-for-profit organisations to receive free resources, courtesy of businesses donating their surplus stocks.
Organised by Rural Action Derbyshire, the aim of this training session is to explain the key statutory requirements as they affect village halls and to provide volunteers managing those buildings with the information and documentation they need to address them. The emphasis in legislation is prevention of accidents through risk assessment.

Voluntary and Community Services Peaks and Dales (VCSPD) has a new name! Thanks to grant funding, VCSPD became Connex Community Support with effect from 1st March 2019.
The new name was selected for its simplicity, and it is hoped that it will enable the services to reach more people locally.
In the Southern Derbyshire Dales the Volunteer Transport Service has changed its name to Connex Transport and can be reached on 01335 344700. The Readycall Macmillan service is now known as Connex Readycall with offices in Ashbourne (Tel: 01335 348600) and Bakewell (Tel: 01629 693693).
The Escape Project, which DDCVS has run since 2011, will come to an end in March 2019. In that time, it has had three hundred referrals, and has worked with people who live in supported housing, or live independently with additional help. Although we are sorry to see the project end, we are pleased that some elements of the project will continue to be delivered by other agencies.
