Resource Centre Launch - What a fantastic day!
Yesterday we opened the doors to our new Resource Centre – and what a day it was!
We were absolutely delighted to welcome around 100 guests from across Derby, including our amazing food partners, corporate partners, referrers, community organisations and supporters.
It was a fantastic opportunity to showcase how far Derby Food 4 Thought Alliance has come over the last six years, the work we are doing today and our plans for the future.
Our CEO, Paul Brookhouse, gave a presentation sharing an insight into the current situation facing DF4TA, the increasing demand for our support, the work we are developing and our vision for the future.
Guests were also able to take tours of our new Resource Centre, see our food operation and Furniture & Electrical Project in action, learn more about our new Membership Scheme and find out more about the many different ways DF4TA supports people across the city.
But most importantly, it was a chance to bring together the incredible network of people and organisations who help make our work possible.
A HUGE thank you
To everyone who took the time to join us – thank you. Your support, partnership and belief in what we do means so much to us.
A very special thank you to our amazing staff and volunteers, who worked incredibly hard to make the day such a success. We couldn’t do what we do without you.
And a huge thank you to the Derby Market Hall team for allowing us to use such a fantastic venue. It was a brilliant space to bring everyone together and showcase the work happening across DF4TA.
Yesterday wasn’t just about opening a building. It was about celebrating how far we’ve come, the partnerships we’ve built and looking ahead to what we can achieve together. Six years on, we are still growing, still developing and still working hard to support people across Derby.
Thank you for being part of our journey.
Think Food.
Think Support.
Think Change.
