Early news about GHBL Photographic Competition 2019. The theme for this year's competition will be Hidden Gems in Hasland and Grassmoor. Is there a place that you go to that is little known, somewhere that you think deserves the description of a hidden gem? Although the competition is not officially open, (so please don't submit your photographs yet) we will be looking for photographs taken at anytime during 2019 up until the closing date. Competition open and closing dates will be announced later in the Spring. Enjoy snapping.

The Christmas Weekend, supported by GHBL, was held over Saturday 22^nd and Sunday 23^rd December at Grassmoor Community Centre and was a great success, being well attended by both local residents and those from further afield. Victorian games and Punch and Judy took centre stage on Saturday whilst Sunday’s seasonal Pantomime, Cinderella, was watched by over 50 families. With Santa’s Grotto, food including free mince pies, raffle and prizes there was plenty on offer for all the family to enjoy.

Partnership Chair, Stephen Wright, said “It was wonderful to see the community turn out to support this fun filled weekend and I would like to thank Grassmoor Community Centre, Grassmoor Parish Council and our fabulous GHBL volunteers whose hard work made the whole thing possible.”

Following the success of the GHBL Photographic Competition in the summer, we have produced a 2019 Calendar featuring a selection of the entries. 

Thanks to everyone who entered, Chesterfield Photographic Society and NEDDC for your support with this project. Photographic Competition 2019 is coming soon....please check our website regularly for dates and further information.

Blessed with wonderful weather Grassmoor Funday was very well received and supported by the local community. 

There were lots of different things to try with over 20 stalls to visit. 

The events committee had provided free activities including face painting, a bouncy castle and Extreme Wheels for the younger community members to enjoy. 

In addition, White Post farm provided a very ‘hands-on’ experience with a variety of animals for all the family to enjoy.  At very short notice a local dance troupe stepped in to entertain everyone with their amazing show. 

A huge thank you to everyone who attended and to all the volunteers who helped with organising, setting up and clearing away, without whom, this event would not have been possible.

A great example of the community spirit that exists in Grassmoor!
