A minutes applause ahead of kick-off yesterday in memory of Derek Topping who sadly passed away recently.
Derek was a lifelong supporter, a Magpie, through and through. Our thoughts are with Derek's family and friends at this sad time. 🖤🤍

@chorleyfc@dia_images Thank you to all involved in organising the minutes applause for my dad. This was a very emotional experience for myself and my brother, my dad would have loved this so much. Chorley fans and Buxton fans made this very special #wearechorley
@chorleyfc Thank you to all at Chorley FC for giving my dad Derek Topping a minutes applause before the match today. It meant the world to myself and my brother and Dad would have been thrilled. He was a true Magpie #wearechorley
Christmas Day update.
Who would have thought that our plans to open for a few hours on Christmas Day would have gone viral? But it has.
One question we keep being asked is, ‘why?’
A simple answer - why not.
If one person turns up and isn’t alone, then it’s worth opening the doors.
There are several staff coming in, and that’s because they want to come in, and not because they’ve been asked to.
We are also being asked by businesses and by people as far and wide as the USA if they can donate to the day - the answer is yes.
We are asking people to contact: [email protected] and our staff in the Community Foundation will pass on the relevant details to you.
Our Community Foundation does great work in the local area, and any monies not used on Christmas Day will be used in the local area and not swallowed up in the day-to-day running of a football club.
For those that aren’t already aware, the club will be opening its doors from noon until 3pm on Christmas Day for anyone who would like to call in.
Anybody is welcome, whether you're home alone or want to get out of the house with the family for a couple of hours.
Up the Magpies!
So I’m rewatching Glee over the summer holidays and I’m going to turn this into a thread of all the things I would CPOMS in a heartbeat.
1. A teacher’s wife asking to adopt a student’s baby without their knowledge.
@tinytwink my mum has to go into full time care last year after taking a turn for the worst with her dementia. Carers are without doubt the most amazing people, without the lovely carers at my mums home we would have been really struggling. From me to you thank you. 😊 x

Another fantastic installation by our team. This one is lovely #porcelain styled #paving in Kandla Grey. Kota edge border to finish.
#Landscape solutions the #GoAheadGardens way.
I'll never forget my first Ofsted lesson observation, as an NQT, when they said I couldn't rely on this level of energy to engage and enthuse my class as it would diminish as I got older. I hope they get to watch this, 20 years later. 🤔
This week you:
Kept them safe
Made them laugh
Helped them learn
Made them better
Modelled kindness
Supported their needs
Showed them something new
Helped a colleague
Made someone smile
Were good enough
Did more than you realise
This week you made a difference.
New #Driveway installed. Decorative gravel is a cost effective way to revamp your driveway. Very attractive, and easy #Maintenance. Thanks for looking - the #GoAheadGardens team.
