We’re delighted to be at the East Midlands Chamber of Commerce Sustainability & CSR Conference at the University of Derby today!
At Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre, our mission is simple but powerful: giving disadvantaged children the chance to enjoy a seaside holiday, build confidence, and make memories that last a lifetime.
🤝 Partnering with us is more than charity – it’s a meaningful CSR opportunity. By working with DCHC, your organisation can:
✔️ Make a tangible difference for children in our region
✔️ Demonstrate real social impact to your staff, customers, and stakeholders
✔️ Align with a trusted Derbyshire charity that has been supporting children since 1891
If you’re here today, come and have a chat with us – we’d love to share how working with us can help you achieve your CSR goals while changing young lives.
📸 Keep an eye out for us at Derby Uni – we’re ready to talk partnerships, impact, and kindness in action.

Saturday 6th September | Mayor of Amber Valley quiz | Charles Hill Community Hub
The Derbyshire Children's Holiday Centre are extremely grateful and proud to have been selected by The Mayor of Amber Valley - Cllr Steve Marshall-Clarke as his nominated charity for 2025-2026.
As such the proceeds from the fish and chip supper with a quiz were donated to the Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre. The event was a great success, a full compliment of quizzers coupled with great food and games, like heads and tails were able to enjoy a fantastic evening.
Bringing the local community together whilst having fun and raising funds, a truly brilliant combination.
The event raised over £680 for the charity, that’s absolutely amazing and will go towards our Comeback 2026 campaign. Thanks go to everyone who attended, again special thanks to Steve for creating the event and to Laura for making it possible.

Thank you goes to the organisers of the Turnditch and Windley show which went ahead today. A very traditional show with tractors, vintage cars, dogs, horses, fruit, vegetables, flowers, crafts, falconry and a whole lot more.
The Derbyshire Children's Holiday Centre had a tombola and wine lottery lotto at our stand and with thanks to all of you that passed by and played we raised on the day an amazing £409.05.
Brilliant - thank you everyone.
