Just over a week to go until our 70 mile challenge 🙌🏼🚴🏼

In less than two weeks, Liam Goode from South Derbyshire Active Schools Partnership will be taking on the 70-mile bike ride challenge in support of Freya and her treatment journey. 🚴‍♂️💪

If you're able to spare even a penny or two, your support would mean the world, not just to Liam, but to Freya and her family as they navigate this incredibly tough time. Every donation, no matter the size, helps make a real difference. ❤️

A huge thank you to all the amazing parents, families, and friends who have already donated and shown your support—your kindness does not go unnoticed!

🚨Important Dance in the Forest Information & Updates🚨

The venue for the event is The Glade, Rosliston Forestry Centre, Burton Road, Rosliston, Swadlincote, DE12 8JX.

Unfortunately, we have found out this morning that our food vendor that was due to attend can no longer make it so there will be ice cream for sale but no hot food vendor.

The ground is slightly wet so we recommend bringing something to sit on, we have got a limited number of chairs for people to use but we would recommend bringing your own.
