Why we need your support
Shopping with us or donating items for us to sell helps fund our compassionate care.
Much of the beautiful Peak District lies here in North Derbyshire, right on our doorstep. You might call us biased but it really is one of the most unique and stunning locations in the UK!
Whether you decide to make home here or opt for city living in Sheffield or Nottingham, you’re only ever a short trip away from the breath-taking views and scenery the Peaks has on offer.
Here at Ashgate, we’re always keen to stress the importance of all our staff and volunteers maintaining a healthy work/life balance. So having something like the Peak District so close is such a great asset to living in North Derbyshire – there’s nothing quite like experiencing fresh air in the great outdoors!
Whether you fancy a stroll around the quaint villages of Edale and Hathersage or a hike up Mam Tor – some of our favourite spots the Peak District has to offer include the lovely town of Castleton, Ladybower Reservoir, Stanage Edge, Hathersage and Bakewill (don’t forget to visit our shop!)
There are many great reasons why our staff and volunteers are proud to work at Ashgate Hospice
We asked some of our staff what they loved most about living and working in North Derbyshire. Here’s what they had to say.
If the hustle and bustle of busy towns and cities is your thing, there are plenty of options to choose from just a short distance away.
Thank you to our volunteer and professional photographer, Tom Hodgson, for his stunning photos of the Peak District.
