Our popular Connection Cafés continue to flourish, bringing women together across Derbyshire and creating opportunities for friendship, support and community. We are currently focusing on three key locations, Chesterfield, Grassmoor and Bolsover, alongside our online sessions for those who are unable to attend in person.

Our cafés offer a relaxed, welcoming and safe environment where women can connect with others, share experiences and build meaningful relationships. They are also a great opportunity to introduce patients, clients, friends, family members or colleagues, who you feel may benefit from the support that Compassionate Voices provides.

Batty Bingo is Back for Halloween!

Get ready for a spook-tacular afternoon as Batty Bingo returns this Halloween!

Join us at Grassmoor Community Centre on Sunday 25th October, from 3.00pm to 6.00pm, for an afternoon packed with fun, laughter and a little Halloween magic. This event is open to women and girls aged 10+ and promises a warm, welcoming atmosphere with plenty of chances to win prizes.

Fancy getting into the Halloween spirit? Feel free to come in costume, although dressing up is entirely optional. There will be lots of festive fun on the tables too, including Halloween-themed headbands and accessories for everyone to enjoy.

A suggested donation of £5 per adult helps support Compassionate Voices, with under 18s attending free of charge. Your donation includes bingo tickets, light refreshments, and a glass of Prosecco or Nosecco.

Whether you’re a seasoned bingo fan or simply looking for a fun way to spend a Sunday afternoon, gather your friends, bring your lucky charms, and join us for an unforgettable Halloween celebration.

We can’t wait to see you there!
