A few weeks ago, the Oakwood day trips group visited the beautiful , the family home of the Fitzherbert family for over 400 years. During their visit, they were delighted to meet Sir Richard Fitzherbert, High Sheriff of Derbyshire, who kindly invited them back for a private tour of the stunning grounds.

So last week the group returned and had a fantastic morning exploring the gardens and soaking up the history. A huge thank you to Sir Richard and Debbie for their warm welcome and generosity — it truly made the visit extra special!

It might be a little early to mention the ‘C’ word… but here at the Trust, we like to stay one step ahead!

Over the past few weeks, our wonderfully creative Arts & Crafts group have been busy designing and making their very own Christmas cards. Last week, we had the joy of seeing their final masterpieces and judging them for our annual Christmas Card Competition.

After much deliberation (and a few tough decisions!), five designs were chosen to become our official Charity Christmas Cards for 2025. The winning designs are now with the printers, and we can’t wait to share them with you soon — they’ll be available to buy very shortly, so keep your eyes peeled for more details!

Here are a few photos of some of the talented winners and runners-up.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part — you made the judges’ job incredibly difficult!

are a global technology and scientific organisation with offices across all the world - and we've been lucky to receive outstanding support from their UK team based at Alderley Park for many years .

Yesterday, we were thrilled to welcome Phenomenex colleagues from all across the globe for a 'Make A Difference' Day here in Macclesfield. It was wonderful to share the work of our local charity with people from every corner of the world and we're so grateful for all the work helping to tidy our grounds. Thank you Phenomenex for your time, energy and enthusiasm. We hope you enjoyed the day and next time you are back in Macclesfield, please come and say hello!!

If your organisation is looking for a great way to get colleagues together, give back to the community and make a real difference, then why not get in touch and book a 'make a difference' day with us.
