Anyone and everyone involved in the Construction Industry in NE Derbyshire is welcome to attend and as usual, there is NO Entry / Membership Fee and Refreshments (including a licensed bar) will be available to purchase.Anyone and everyone involved in the Construction Industry in NE Derbyshire is welcome to attend and as usual, there is NO Entry / Membership Fee and Refreshments (including a licensed bar) will be available to purchase.
