This year the SGP Special Event was held at the Palace Hotel, Buxton on Saturday, April 23rd. This is a really important day for the project and is always popular with those who attend. It's a great opportunity for groups to network, learn new skills, get information and advice and be entertained and pampered a bit.

One of the most uplifting parts of the day is when the groups describe their activities – you simply can't fail to be inspired by what local people are achieving in our community. 60 members attended from 25 different small groups that have been supported by SGP. Many groups brought their own display and information. There was a choice of four workshops, and short presentations were given by many of the groups. Throughout the day brilliant entertainment was provided by Shuttlers' Clog, The Last Call - Club Acoustic and Heartbeat Chorus.

Here are just a few of the images of a great day.
