"The DCCP event was very welcome. I came along to the Bloomer and Beyond exhibition briefly and it seemed to be very well attended with a great selection of memorabilia causing lots of interest. The event also generated lots of interest and coverage in the media which must have been pleasing for you."
"I have left a message for Jim Fearn to get some feedback on how the event went as far as the club were concerned. Best wishes."

"We continue to strive to tackle and cope with the "challenge culture" and life style issues that seem to be part and parcel of life in our society today. We have recently reviewed our whole school approach to behaviour management and developing a reward culture both in the the giving and receiving. We are to have a whole school inset day next term on the whole issue of behaviour management where we will be exploring old and new ways of approaching some of the problems we face in schools today."
"From the very start it is in this context that we see Derby County and DCCP having a positive role to play in the lives of schools and young people."
"Of course part of our concern is with the tremendous pressures that schools and inevitable our youngsters are put under to get results so that we look good in the "league tables" The health of our young people is a major concern for us both their physical health (e.g the drug culture) and their mental health (e.g. facing bullying and the stress of having to be successful). All the time we are working with young people who are at risk in some way and they are all potentially at risk."
"It is an exciting prospect to think that a professional football club could use its resources to assist us in this work. Obviously this would require careful thought and planning but we are convinced much good work could be done."
"The development of a school season network we see also as a useful exercise for allowing the "ordinary supporter" access to the club an as an avenue for them to put their views forward. "

"I am pleased to be able to confirm that DLSC is keen to work with the DCCP to assist in its successful development and delivery.""The potential to engage with the wider community through association with sport is well established. I believe, that as the premiere team in the county, Derby County Football Club is extremely important in this regard."
"Can I take this opportunity to wish the DCCP every success in the achievement of its aims and aspirations."
