💷Why?💷

Back in July, Tissington Well Dressing Committee gathered to distribute the funds raised at this year's event. We are overjoyed to share that after another successful year we have been able to distribute over £6000 to charities and good causes both locally and nationally.
These include:

St Mary's Church and church yard
FitzHerbert C of E Primary School
Tissington Methodist Chapel
Derbyshire Air Ambulance
Christian Aid
Scopes4SEN
Derbyshire Carers
Ashbourne First Responders
Ashbourne Playaway
Derby Mountain Rescue
Derbyshire Rural Chaplaincy
Careline

In addition a donation has also been made to the “village post” project. The Committee agreed that it has always supported projects to improve the presentation and functionality of the village, and that when possible this tradition should continue, so we are pleased to make the donation in this regard.

We look forward to another busy year in 2026 when the Wells will be dressed again, from May 14th to 20th.
