Story

**********  UPDATE  ***********

Team DSF hits their target but ………..

DSF have always supported local charities and groups, but, until recently, have never publicised the fact. After suggestions from this year’s chosen charity, Ashgate Hospice, things have obviously changed, and we now, along with social events and DSF news, publicise some of our charitable work within the local community and further afield on our Facebook page.

The Ashgate Sparkle Walk is an example of this. Team DSF have surpassed their target of £1,000 with three weeks to go and would like to thank everyone for their kind donations. However, this figure was almost plucked out of the air, we had no idea and were overwhelmed with how much support we have generated. So we would like to keep going and raise as much money as possible for this very worthwhile cause.

Thank you all again.

Thank you for visiting our JustGiving page.

Ashgate Hospice are here to help, whether you’re living with a life-limiting illness, caring for someone who is, or grieving the death of a loved one. It’s important that local people and companies continue to help to fund this important resource, especially as we are in a national cost of living crisis.

DSF Refractories & Minerals is a manufacturing company in the heart of the Peak District. We are proud to be supporting our local, Chesterfield based Ashgate Hospice as our first ever Charity of the year for 2023/24. A team of DSF Employees along with family and friends will be taking part in the annual Ashgate Sparkle Walk on 1st July, and we thank you for supporting Team DSF with a donation as we don our bunny ears and T shirts and light up the night. JustGiving is an easy way to donate, but if anyone wants to donate via an individual Team member this is also possible.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity
