Chesterfield Champions

Upcoming Champions Events

Our events for Chesterfield Champions inspire, educate and inform on our evolving town and organisations including:

  • Destination Chesterfield marketing campaigns
  • Business and skills support, funding and grants
  • Inward investment and development

They also allow you to connect informally with like-minded Champions and local businesses, alongside catching up with the Destination Chesterfield team.


Round Table CFC

10 people from Chesterfield Champion organisations will discuss their experiences about Skills, Apprenticeships and Careers in Chesterfield at the January Champions Round Table.

Date: Wednesday 15th January

Venue: Chesterfield College

Time: 2:00pm – 4:00pm

Open to: Chesterfield Champions only

Register your interest: Email info@Chesterfield.co.uk

The in-person discussion will allow Destination Chesterfield to create two strong news stories around current affairs. You will be able to read these stories both via Destination Chesterfield‘s channels or through readership of the Derbyshire Times. The best quotes from businesses involved in the Round Table discussions will be included in the news stories. These support changing perceptions of the town and the angle or call to action, backed up by statistics and information sourced by the Destination Chesterfield team and its strategic partners.

Representatives from Destination Chesterfield, Chesterfield Borough Council and East Midlands Chamber will also endeavour to be present at each event where possible. This will allow these bodies to listen to concerns and feed into the discussion.

Chesterfield Champions can register their interest in being part of this Champions Round Table by emailing our info box (info@Chesterfield.co.uk)
