As we approach the end of our second year, The Derbyshire Village Games team are seeking feedback on the project. We are on course to smash the targets set for participation, coaches and volunteering, and want to find out your views.

This will help to improve the project, and sustain Village Games beyond July 2013. Please complete a short survey here.

 

Browse our archived articles using the calendar.  You can also see all our current activities and events for the whole of Derbyshire , and the weekly activities plan, by district:

Amber Valley, NE Derbyshire, High Peak, Derbyshire Dales, Bolsover and South Derbyshire

We also manage Jog Derbyshire groups in towns and villages all over the County.
