2026 Provisional Rally Programme UPDATE

The provisional rally programme will be shared tomorrow at 7pm (ish) on the website and on the Centre's facebook page.
Just to whet your appetite, we have some new holiday rally sites!!
Come back tomorrow evening and all will be revealed..........

Provisional 2026 Rally Programme

On behalf of the Committee, I am delighted to share the provisional 2026 rally programme here:
https://www.derbyshirecentre.co.uk/rally-news

The rallies will be uploaded to the website and will be bookable later in the Autumn.

Huge thanks to Howard and Zara for their hard work in pulling together a great mix of old favourites and exciting new sites.
You will see that committee members have offered to marshal or co-marshal a small number of rallies, particularly those which are new sites, holiday rallies or early in the programme. This is to make sure that these rallies have the support from marshals to run.
We will still need marshals for approx. 20 rallies. Please have a look at the list and support the centre if you can!!
If you would like to volunteer to marshal any of the rallies, please email webmaster@derbyshirecentre.com with the names of the rallies you are volunteering to marshal in preference order, and these will be allocated as fairly as possible.
Please note the list is provisional. In most cases, confirmation has been received in writing from the landowners, however it is subject to change if circumstances dictate.

How to contact your Committee

Did you know that each Committee member has an email address? Please try to direct your communication to the correct person who can help you or raise at a Committee meeting on your behalf. All email addresses available here: https://www.derbyshirecentre.co.uk/committee

Incentives update

Following our recent committee meeting and in unanimous agreement on the centre needing to reduce outgoing expenditure due to the continued yearly shortfall(s) it has been agreed the rally incentive rewards for rallies attended and first time ralliers will no longer receive a monetary incentive voucher.

Rally attendance and milestones will still be recorded and recognised at AGM but without monetary reward.

We thank you in advance for understanding and your continued support with your centre

Thanks
Helen Wanless
Derbyshire Centre Secretary

Chairman's Charity rally raises £1100

We are delighted to announce that the Chairman's Charity Music Rally has raised £1100 for the local Air Ambulance.

Rally Plaques Update

Following on from a suggestion made via the Suggestions Form on our Website to the committee regarding plaques, we have agreed to give members and visitors the option to opt in or out of receiving a Rally Plaque.

Due to minimum order quantities and rally pricing currently there is NO Discount if you choose not to receive one.

As most of the 2023 rally programmes have already gone live and bookings made we have only added this option to rallies with no marshals or no current bookings and we can review it after the 2024 rally programme has gone live.

Extra Extra.... Blog All About It!!

We have added a Centre Blog page to our website under the "News" section

The purpose of this blog is to create a more engaging website for our centre. Along with using our website to book rallies, find more information about our centre and services, a blog section helps to keep our members informed about topics that are relevant to our rallies and centre.
The first blogs are available now by clicking News then Centre Blog.
