Highfields School’s support for DCC Food Hamper assembly
Derbyshire Catering Services used the school sports hall to assemble 212 hampers requested by DCC to send out to foster carers of Derbyshire and to families in need of support. DCC are continuing to provide hampers as part of their current support during the Covid-19 lockdown and Highfields School wanted to support them as much as possible to enable this vital service to be delivered to the community.
