November 2020 – A message from the Chairman

As we mark nearly eight months since the beginning of lockdown, I would like to extend my sincere thanks to all those who have supported the Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre. Whether that’s by donating, taking on a fundraising challenge, or following our activities online – a Big Thank You.

Opportunities and challenges lie ahead, but I am absolutely clear on one point which is that the Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre ( DCHC ) would not exist without the enduring commitment of its supporters, partners, volunteers, and staff. Thank you all for your support in these trying times.

Yours, Alan

Alan Grimadell, Chairman, DCHC
