YADA is a sober social, we offer an inclusive environment for those who are sober, those who are cutting down and those who just feel like a night off from alcohol every once in a while. We believe just because you’re not drinking doesn’t mean you have to miss out on all the fun! We care about real human interaction and we would love to get to know the real you! YADA Collective - Creating an alcohol-free environment, community and experience for all. YADA Collective opened its first alcohol-free bar on Green Lane in the centre of Derby. The venue is open to the public every weekend, plus special events throughout the week including themed nights and community spaces. The bar is available for hire during the remaining hours of the week, so if you're interested in hosting your own event in the fantastic rustic venue, please do get in touch. YADA operates an online store where we sell a huge range of quality alcohol-free drinks. (YADACollective.co.uk/store) Want to experience YADA, but not in Derby? We also offer an exclusive alcohol-free mobile bar service, so if you're hosting your own event, whether it be a work conference, a wedding, a festival or a garden party, we can be there to serve you the best alcohol-free drinks on the market.

Royal MailPostperson (with Driving)

Jul. 2023Derby, England, United KingdomFor a change of scenery (quite literally) and out in all weather, I have taken on a part-time role as a Postman. A friendly face in the community, someone who can be relied upon. I provide a key and final role in the logistics of getting everything to your door, from your Solicitor's papers to your letter from a loved one, from your hobby/craft supplies to your business essentials and everything in between (again, quite literally). Ask me about how this role is keeping me active (I average about 30,000 steps per day), or ask me what ideas I'm dreaming up while walking the streets?
