We held our Christmas Coffee Morning at St. Oswald’s Hospital Foyer on Friday 13th Dec and what a lovely morning it was!

Members, volunteers, and residents from Ashbourne Lodge Care Home joined us. The wonderful Chameleon Choir and the delightful children of St. Oswald’s Primary School sang Christmas carols. Also, a big thank you to St Oswald’s Hospital Kitchen for making and donating the delicious mince pies!

The Mayor of Ashbourne, Cllr Sandra Spencer and her consort also attended and helped announce the winners of our raffle.

Thank you to everyone who attended and to all our volunteers who helped on the day – we couldn’t do it without you! We raised an amazing £830!

Thank you so much!

We had such a fun evening at Ashbourne’s Lantern Parade on Friday 6th Dec – we had our stall on Dig St. and held a bottle tombola and bran tub for the kiddies.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by the stall. You helped raise £80 for Careline Calling!! We even had a little helper – thank you, Leo!

Hopefully, we will see you next year!

As a thank you to our amazing volunteers for their continued support and dedication, we had our annual Volunteer Christmas Get-Together at St Oswald’s Church Hall at the beginning of December.

We had a lovely afternoon with a buffet lunch and a few games of Christmas bingo and presented awards and certificates of appreciation to volunteers.

Thank you to everyone who attended. Your support and dedication don’t go unnoticed. We wouldn’t be the charity we are today without you.

We are thrilled to announce that Careline Calling received an amazing £1000 grant, certificate and award, at the Derbyshire Freemasonry Community Awards last night.

It was a beautiful evening listening to all the incredible work that is being carried out throughout Derbyshire.

Thank you again so much to Freemasonary Derbyshire and to the Masonic Lodges of Ashbourne, who nominated us for this award, we are truly grateful for your support and generosity.

We did it!! Our wonderful volunteers, trustees and supporters walked the 8-mile loop around Carsington Reservoir or a shorter 5k on Saturday in the scorching heat. THANK YOU to everyone who took part and donated. We appreciate you all SO much. We are counting up the proceeds as we speak, so once we have a total amount raised, we will let you know!!
