How to contact us

We temporarily were not able to accept postal communication because we lost our address in Long Eaton as a result of the pandemic, sadly, caused Parkland Connexions to close.   We are pleased to announce we can now accept postal entries to an address in Long Eaton. This address will be listed in the rules of entry although for some competitions we may ask for online entry only.  You can contact Debbie at the email address shown in the competition you wish to enter.
