Our club continues to give support to the local community. We have just recently completed our 11th Annual Charity Horse Ride, with Air Ambulance, RABI, The Farmers Charity, and Peak 4x4 Response being our beneficiaries. There was an excellent turn out of riders and horses, supported by many happy volunteers. We provided water and there were two slosh stations part way round the course and all returned safely without any adverse effects on the horse - or riders!

Local to Shottle, where the ride takes place, we continue to be engaged in a community project at Handley Farm.

We also helped at Croots Farm on their Open Day in June and the Shire Horse Association event in August.

Each December we take Santa on his sleigh around 12 areas in our local community. We also help him at the Grotto at Derby Garden Centre. 

Members have been on visits to Duke's Barn, Lea Green, Wingfield Station, charity evenings at Sylhet Spice and a film show at The Village Inn as well as a French Themed event there. We enjoyed a voyage on "Birdswood", the historic narrowboat, with Friends of Cromford Canal (to whom we supplied branded hi-viz tabards). 

Rotary Amber Valley is registered with the "Climate Clever" initiative and we are long-time supporters of Aquabox.
