Peter Pan: www.trch.co.uk/whats-on/peter-pan-2

These relaxed performances see slight changes to the show that may make people feel more at ease. These include reducing noise levels and excluding any flashing light or loud bangs, keeping the house lights on and doors open for people to move around as they need to. 

From this date, rules around the collection, processing and storing of personal data will be far stricter than they have been to date. The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) will be serving fines to businesses and charities found to be breaching the new laws.

There is a lot of free information, resources and help available to charities of all sizes. This FAQ resource produced by the ICO outlines the fundamental principles of the GDPR, plus it includes useful guidance specifically for small and micro charities. The Charity Finance Group has also produced this helpful guide for charities.

Don’t get caught out, take action now to comply with the GDPR.

Blythe House Hospice would like to make things a little easier to improve end of life care for everyone in our community.  

We know that we will have to face it one day, but we put that ‘‘difficult’’ conversation off until tomorrow. Less fear and taboo and more knowledge and conversation can make a huge difference. 

That’s why Blythe House Hospice  are hosting their event ‘Thinking Outside the Box’.  There will be a range of information, a variety of local representatives, i.e. Funeral Directors, representatives of different faiths and no faith, art and crafts , information about benefits, Will Writing and Estate planning, funeral choices and customs, and of course, plenty of tea, coffee and cake. 

Come along, all welcome. 

To find out more about Blythe House services, volunteering or fundraising contact the Hospice at Eccles Fold Road, Chapel-en-le-Frith, High Peak, SK23 9TJ. Tel: 01298 815388.  Email: info@blythehouse.co.uk.
