URGENT UPDATE

When planning your route to this event please be aware 

 DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES TRY TO APPROACH THE VENUE VIA WALTON ON TRENT even if directed to do so by your sat nav.

Walton on Trent has a restricted width bridge which is absolutely NOT WIDE ENOUGH for even the most slender caravan YOU WILL GET STUCK.

Please look out for Derbyshire Centre rally signs and check your route before leaving home.

Really pleased to say that we have been keeping a close eye on the rally field in recent weeks and after a further visit this week we can report that the field is still in good order even after the worst the weather could throw at it.

Still plenty of room on the field for caravans and plenty of parking for day visitors at a charge of £10 per car on the gate.

WOW what a weekend that was - we had around 150 caravans in attendance in the glorious sunshine!

Thank you to everyone who attended helping to make a good rally truly memorable - however at one point during the weekend we had a medical emergency which required the air ambulance and the land ambulance to attend the rally field.  Everyone rallied round and I am happy to say that the gentleman who suffered a massive heart attack on the field is now doing extremely well in hospital and will hopefully be discharged later next week.

Thanks again to all involved!

Well done Graham and to all the others who helped and probably saved his life. We were really pleased to hear that he is doing OK and wish him all the best.

I would like to add my thanks to all the people who put together a great rally. We enjoyed ourselves and also the follow on rallies at Tansley and Darley Dale. Keep up the good work.
