Up hills and down dales....

We, at DRS, would like to offer huge thanks to Andrea and her team for the fabulous day we enjoyed, around Birchover and 'The Nine Ladies'.

The 18 members of our group thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of your planned activities: the wonderful views, during the walk; the introduction to the essential aspects of nature - the great oak trees, heathers, elderflowers, silver birch and bilberries...There was an enthusiastic response to the art session, to the history of the Nine Ladies - and the responses to the test questions were inspirational.

I was proud to hear the spontaneous yet formally addressed 'thanks', spoken by two of our young men, before our return to the coach.

We very much appreciate the kind attention, given to the planning and support of our adventure.

Our return journey to Derby was quietly sleepy!
