After evaluating the area and the weather forecast, we have made the decision to cancel this afternoons MindSpace walk at Swadlincote Woodlands. We hope our MindSpace walk at Markeaton Park on Friday will still go ahead, but we will share any updates if needed on our socials.

Fascinating conversation with Derbyshire VCSE colleagues this morning. What struck me most was that VCSE leaders (for the most part) are natural collaborators and altruistic thinkers - battling a system in which these attributes are not valued as highly as they should be 💙

We still have a couple of places left for our Yoga session tomorrow at Chester Green Community Centre with Mary. You can book your free place by visiting our website. derbyshiremind.org.uk/services/commu…
