What a fantastic afternoon we had at our luncheon last week! Surrounded by wonderful company, meaningful conversations, delicious food, and glorious weather — it truly was a memorable event.




A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us, and a special thanks to our inspiring patron, Lord-Lieutenant of Derbyshire, Elizabeth Fothergill CBE, for sharing her incredible journey and unwavering support for Children First Derby.



In addition to showcasing our services that support vulnerable children, young people and families, we had some powerful recorded testimonies from three of our service users that showed the positive impact the support extended has had on their lives.




The event also gave us the opportunity to show our appreciation by presenting long service awards to two members of our staff Anne Marie and Carina, Manager and Deputy Manager of the Supervised Family Time Service.



Thank you to our amazing staff!
