r/derby

You get a lot of negativity about Derby posted online so I want to know what you think the best thing about Derby is? For me it’s the roundabouts in Sinfin, there’s so many it reminds me of Milton Keynes.

Noticed a lot of people doing meetup/looking for friends posts and just wanna remind people:

• Don't meet somewhere you don't know
• Make sure someone knows who/where you're meeting
• Meet in a public place
• Have your own way home
• Don't get in random people's cars
• Keep your expensive shit at home
• Trust your gut if something feels off
• Don't be a moron

I know stuff like this is common knowledge some people on this r/ are so nice and friendly all it takes is one dickhead to take advantage and something bad happens to someone.

BUT If you do have a fun time let everyone else know :D

(If you have any other things to add just comment them below)

Hello,

I'm a disabled person based in Derby and I'm looking for a honest, punctual and chatty person to care fir me for 3 hours a week on a Saturday one week and a Sunday the next. Your responsibility would be to help me go out and do the things I love such as: go shopping, go to the park, visit national trust, go to the Peak District etc.

I have a physical disability and am registered blind, support is more companionship and things like pushing my wheelchair etc. No personal care required.

The hourly rate is £16 & £0.40 fuel expenses per mile.

You must drive and be willing to provide a dbs.

Please message me on 07949549558 if interested!

Hi everyone,

I am an incoming student at the University of Derby, and I am currently exploring accommodation options. I am close to finalizing a place located at 100 St. Chads Road, Derby DE23 6RP.

I just wanted to check if this area is considered safe for international students.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hey, apologies if this isn't allowed, but I'm not looking for any paid clients or trying to promote a business (I haven't started one yet).

I've just finished my PT qualifications and I'm looking for a few people who'd be willing to let me gain some practical experience working with them. I'm offering 3 completely free sessions, mainly so I can build up some experience, get some feedback on how I can improve, and have something to add to my CV while I figure out how I want to go about setting up as a PT over the next few months.

I plan to specialise in working with clients with Neurodiversity, but I'm open to everyone generally.

There's absolutely no obligation to continue after the 3 sessions, and I'm not looking for payment or trying to turn this into clients.

I'm also more than happy to hear any advice from people who have been working as PTs for a while, particularly if you have any tips on getting started. Thanks!

Hi guys, I'm travelling up from the South, my Airbnb doesn't allow check-in until 2PM - I arrive to Derby around 10AM, I was just wondering if there is anywhere I can sit and do some work like a library or any quiet, safe place?

Never travelled to Derby before so any help would be much appreciated! Thank you :)

Can the imbiciles setting off fireworks right now near the city centre please recognise the fact that we're in a severe fire risk area and seek help with their lack of cognitive ability?
