Our Story
S18 8ZN.
We provide a safe meeting place for people to improve their social skills, wellbeing and loneliness.
Our group is run by local volunteers and aims to provide mutual support and a listening ear, along with activities, games & a cuppa, as well as information about other relevant support services in the area.
Aged 18 & up, there are a mix of age ranges that attend the hub of men & women, don't be alone at home, come and have a chat.
We go out for a two monthly meal together, call in and see where we are going.
We fundraise ourselves so feel free to donate even a small amount for your drinks & food, if you can.
To help people feel less isolated, more engaged, improve wellbeing and have some fun along the way.
We are all volunteers and always looking for any new members to join us and become part of our community hub as a committee member, always welcoming new ideas.
Below is an update of some of the things we have been doing over the last 2 Years.
We have had a very busy time during the first two years, firstly establishing ourselves, seeing what works and what doesn't
The men's club was not very successful but those men that did attend now join us anyway so no one is lost.
Kayleigh's Therapy session's have been very successful and we now have her attending 1 & a half days per month.
We have taken part in a free course at Chesterfield beauty academy.
Both myself & Dave have taken the chair based exercise course with Age UK & we both passed, so we can teach chair based activities.
Fundraising took some time for me to get my head round but with some help from Jon at linkscvs and lots of patience I finally got there.
We have yoga, chair based exercises and curling regularly, the curling is so much fun and everyone has banter, especially when it's men versus women.
We make paper flowers and handmade cards which we sell to raise money for the hub.
We have been visiting other hubs and enjoying other people's company and experiences by using community transportation & we even did a trip to London to the Old Vic Theatre to see a Christmas Carol. We go to the market twice a month and go out for a hub meal locally every two months.
Jason from Rykneld has attended to help out with computer and phone technology.
Jude from Rykneld has helped with a few different things but mainly showed me how to use spreadsheets so I can keep our books up to date.
We have had the animal zoo visit the hub, which was incredible and everyone had a fantastic time.
Derbyshire Carers, local mental health teams, social prescribers, occupational therapist, Citizens Advice & the Living Well team visit regularly.
We have raised money for dementia, the hub and competed in race for life as a hub & we continue to fundraise for ourselves, we also now have a crowdfunding page.
https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/dronfield-woodhouse-community-support-hub
We had a big party for the Kings Coronation and had so much fun, we have a Christmas Party every year and have a singer, Christmas Carols and a buffet.
We now have outside chairs, tables and games which we can use when the weather is good.
Our members have taken part in an air fryer course.
I would like to thank every one of our committee members and our volunteers who have helped out and how without all of us working together this hub would not be possible.
The group has grown so much and we are looking forward to what's ahead.

Long COVID
It’s not always possible to treat COVID-19. But there are things you can do to help ease some of the symptoms, such as a high temperature, a cough and breathlessness.
Do
- get lots of rest
- drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration (your pee should be light yellow or clear)
- take paracetamol or ibuprofen if you feel uncomfortable
- try having a teaspoon of honey if you have a cough – do not give honey to babies under 12 months
- try turning the heating down or opening a window to help with breathlessness
- breathe slowly in through your nose and out through your mouth, with your lips together like you're gently blowing out a candle
- sit upright in a chair to help with breathlessness
- relax your shoulders, so you're not hunched to help with breathlessness
- lean forward slightly – support yourself by putting your hands on your knees or on something stable like a chair to help with breathlessness
Don’t
- do not lie on your back if you have a cough – lie on your side or sit upright instead
- do not use a fan to cool your room as it may spread the virus
- try not to panic if you're feeling breathless – this can make it worse
