Don’t forget the amazing festive tractor run tomorrow!

🌲🚜 TRACTOR RUN: IMPORTANT INFO 🚜🌲

With our annual Tractor Run tomorrow, here's some important information you might need:

🚜Tractors will begin to arrive at The Kedleston Country House from around 4pm and will be on display in our gardens until they depart at 5pm. It's the perfect opportunity to see them up close and enjoy food and drink. PLEASE NOTE: Tractors may need to make a last minute decision to divert for any reason such as obstructions in the road or unexpected road closures. We apologise for any inconvenience.

🌲The route is available to view on our website here: https://www.kedlestoncountryhouse.co.uk/tractor-run/
It is difficult to estimate timings of the route, so please keep an eye out on our social media channels as we will try to share our live location where possible.

⭐This event is for a wonderful charity - The Ben Parker Trust Fund - a charity that support the families of children fighting leukaemia or cancer. We will be accepting cash donations on the night, or you can give to our Just Giving page here: https://www.justgiving.com/page/the-kedleston-country-house-3?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL

Just finished my first Christmas party and it was BRILLIANT if I do say so myself.

EVERYONE had so much fun, dancing, snowball fighting, singing, meeting Rudolph and Santa and decorating the special Twistin Tots Christmas Tree.

I’m just sitting down for a well-earned glass of sparkly.

There is still time to book for one of our parties. They are happening 15-19 December at classes and Holbrook Hall residential care home. Head over to Happity to book yours! 😊

May I remind all customers to Belper Community Hall to take extreme care when entering and exiting the Hall car park.

When I left Belper Community Hall today, I was unable to lock the gate as someone had clearly driven into the post. It had been fine when I arrived. There was half a light casing in the undergrowth, so please check your cars, although I would assume you would know if you had hit it, because the post had moved quite a bit.

If it was you, please get in touch.

Thanks, Jacqui
