How can history spark new voices? That’s the question at the heart of the Inspiring Voices Poetry Festival, a creative programme inviting young people aged 11-25 from across England to explore the stories, people, and landscapes of heritage through poetry. Running from 3 November 2025 until 27 February 2026, this festival, hosted by English Heritage and TORCH (The Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities), offers more than just a competition.

The Bolsover Loop is a 26‑mile circular route linking towns, villages, greenways, nature reserves and heritage sites across Bolsover District.

Discover the Bolsover Loop: A scenic adventure for walkers and cyclists We're excited to announce that we have almost completed waymarking the Bolsover Loop - a scenic circular route exploring the heart of north Derbyshire. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist, a casual walker, or simply someone seeking a day out in the countryside, the Bolsover Loop is the perfect way to explore the rich heritage, beautiful landscapes, and welcoming towns and villages of the Bolsover district.

There’s something special about a winter walk - crisp air, golden light, and the crunch of leaves (or frost!) underfoot. Whether you’re chasing a moment of peace, walking the dog, or finding a family adventure close to home, Bolsover’s countryside is made for it. With the North Derbyshire & North Nottinghamshire (NDNN) App, exploring is easier than ever.

Celebrate 30 years of the Bolsover Lantern Parade with Bright Winter Nights which has quickly become a highlight of the winter calendar
