What's on in Ambergate

Derbyshire, England

Ambergate sits quietly in Derbyshire and somehow manages to hold its own against the bigger towns nearby. The Great British Car Journey has been hosting events for years without ever needing to shout about it. It is a proper place to drop by when you want something that feels like home. We know exactly where the fun is hidden, right here between the lanes and the shops. Near Here keeps track of what's on so you can plan your week with confidence. There is plenty of room for laughter and good company without needing to travel far.

Free Children's Science Day

To celebrate British Science Week we will be holding a free science day for children at Erasmus Darwin House with a selection of “real” science activities available to try. The activities will be suitable for children aged between 7-11 years. Construct a double helix with sweets & try making DNA; try building a wind turbine; what’s the best design for a paper aeroplane?; become a detective and found out who wrote the note using science; build a Hovercraft; can you solve the nail trick? Due to the popularity of this event and to avoid disappointment we would recommend that parents/guardians book a slot for each child. Children must be accompanied by an adult (although we would ask that there are no more than 2 adults per child please to allow us to accommodate as many children as possible). book a place here
