National Summer Event
The challenge of 2023!
This year the pilgrim summer event will be using 2 houses in the centre of Derby instead of staying in a Church or village hall.
Last year we were in the Derbyshire Peak District but southern Derbyshire is very different with a gentler, rolling and very varied landscape and the area has much to offer.
Derby is in the centre of England with good road and rail links in every direction.
Although a small industrial city (famed for Rolls Royce and Railway Engineering) Derby is also an ancient site with Roman remains, Saxon saints, a Mediaeval Bridge chapel, an 18th century Cathedral and the first arboretum in the country. And indeed good museums should the weather be atrocious!
Dates Thurs. 8 June – Wed. 14 June
Arriving late afternoon on Thursday and leaving after B’fast on Wed. (6 nights) You are welcome to come for a shorter time if you wish – costs pro rata
Costs £108 (Daily rate of £18)
Final details will follow later.
Francistide Event
We hope to hold an event of 4 nights in late September/ early October.
At the moment we have not completed arrangements for a venue. Watch this space!
