Derbyshire Region April 2025 Report

This is Roger's Regional Report for April which will appear in The JEC Enthusiast Magazine

April has been a busy month with our few days in North Yorkshire at the beginning of the month followed by the AGM at the monthly meeting.

The Yorkshire trip was blessed with excellent weather, a great hotel with good food and service and a run through some beautiful countryside and we must thank Rachel and Hartley Jenkinson for all their hard work in putting this together. Please check out the Regions website for a full report and photos.

The AGM followed on the 15th and whilst we normally have a good turn out for this only 28 were present and all the financial figures and the programme for 2025 were approved and everyone seemed happy. The only issue has been our venue over the last 12 months and from the May meeting onwards we will be moving to The Highwayman Hotel which is about a mile up the road from the Robin Hood. This is now owned by The Devonshire Group of Hotels (part of Chatsworth Estate) and recent visits by the Committee have proved positive and unless we have any problems this will be our new venue going forward. The May Metting of “Bonnets Up” will be the first test so fingers crossed!

All members have been advised by email together with the full address and postcode.
