We are delighted to announce some limited re-opening!
Our Buxton office is now partially re-open to the public, using a temporary ‘serving hatch’ that is placed in the door entrance. The door will be open on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Fridays from 9.30am to 12.30pm, and from 1pm to 2.30pm. For the moment we will not open on Wednesdays.
Any visitors or contractors who need to access our offices must give advance notice of their visit.

On the right: We received a lovely letter of thanks from Dr Chris Clayton, Executive Lead of ‘Joined Up Care Derbyshire’ for all our work during the pandemic.
