The Local Police team and Councillor Lisa Higginbottom, will be in attendance, along with some of the New Zealand residents who are members of the Mackworth Neighbourhood Board. So come along and have your say about the area you live in.

Come and join us at St Barnabas Church, corner of Radbourne St and Bass St, who are hosting this event for us in aid of the Mini bus fund. An evening of choral delight performed by this wonderful choir. Tickets cost £3.00 each or 4 for £10.00 which can be bought in advance from Nearly New Zealand Charity Shop, Campion St, or New Zealand Chari tea shop, Uttoxeter Old Rd or bought on the night.

A big thank you to all who came along to our Christmas Extravaganza. It was a wonderful event, the Rockabillies Choir led by Sarah Steenson performed seasonal songs for us and were wonderful. Father Christmas took time out of his busy schedule to drop in and talk to the children, and there were lots of bargains to be had around the stalls, including hot turkey rolls and mulled wine at the refreshments stall. The event ended with Councillor Lisa Higginbottom switching on the lights.

The Nearly New Zealand Charity Shop, Campion St, and the New Zealand Chari-tea Shop, Uttoxeter Old Rd, will both be closed over the Christmas period. They will close at 4.00pm on Saturday 20th December 2014 and re-open at their normal times on Monday 5th January 2015. We would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to those of you who have supported us by donating goods to the shops and also for coming in and buying stock.

Saturday 6th December - 5-7pm. Come along to the Christmas Extravaganza at the Lonny Wilsoncroft Community Centre, Stepping Lane, Derby. There will be Carol Singers, stalls, refreshments (hot turkey rolls, jacket potatoes etc), a chance to visit Santas Grotto, and culminating in the switching on of the Christmas Lights outside the centre, by local councillor Lisa Higginbottom
