It has been well documented that community venues like village halls have been finding it difficult to survive after the Pandemic.

But one such village hall in Langwith Bassett is trying to buck this trend as they have regular nursery groups, exercise classes, workshops and art groups using the facility.

We spoke to volunteer Kath Sharpe about the hall.

Bolsover Drama Group are gearing up for their next production – the 9 to 5 musical.

Set in the late 1970s this hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era is outrageous, thought-provoking, and even a little romantic.

We caught up with Mick Whitehouse from the Drama Group to find out more.

1 and 2 October
Shirebrook Academy

Bolsover Festival of Brass returns to Shirebrook Academy with more than 40 bands competing through Championship, First, Second, Third and Fourth sections.

Local bands include Whitwell and Shirebrook Miners Welfare.

Tickets are on sale now for what promises to be a wonderful weekend of brass.

We want residents of Creswell to tell us how they currently use Fox Green so we can shape it in the best way for locals. 

Fox Green is an important green space at the southern end of the village, adjacent to Duchess Street and the A616. It is also a Registered Village Green in recognition of its important recreational value.

As part of the Bolsover Community Woodlands project, we are keen to secure improvement works to Fox Green for the purpose of the better enjoyment of the village green. Together with the Parish Council, the District Council is putting together an improvement plan for Fox Green and we want to explore how people currently use the green space and how we can increase the number of people using it and provide a more diverse and attractive space for local people to visit and enjoy.
