From local to international causes

Morclean have taken part in many community events this year and helped bring many events to residents of Derbyshire. Most support has been offered in the form of hands-on event management and the loaning of equipment to offer security and safety at public events.

Although there are no set policies in place, Morclean works hard to always be pro-active in the community and demonstrate commitment. A few of the events that have received help from Morclean are listed below:

Morclean supports raising funds for Newlife

Climbing Snowdon at sunrise to help change lives

On the 11th May 2025, Mark and Kerry are taking on the Snowdon Sunrise Challenge. It will be an unforgettable night-time trek up Wales’ highest mountain, with the aim of helping transform the lives of disabled and terminally ill children across the UK.

Guided by moonlight, they will brave the rugged trails of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon). Pushing themselves through the darkness to reach the summit just as the first rays of sunlight spill across the landscape. It will be breathtaking. It will be tough. But it will be worth every step – because this challenge is about so much more than the climb.

Morclean supports Fairplay of Chesterfield

A Spotlight on Fairplay: A Charity Making a Real Difference

Morclean is proud to have supported Fairplay for many years. They’re one of the incredible charities we raise funds for through our annual Slow Rally, and it’s high time we gave them the recognition they deserve. So, let’s take a closer look at who they are, the inspiring work they do.

Fairplay is a lifeline for families across North Derbyshire. They support children and young people with disabilities and additional needs, along with their parents and siblings. Their approach is all about creating opportunities, offering support, and making life a little brighter for families who often face huge challenges.

Morclean Supports Three Peaks Challenge

A  team of eleven parents from Matlock in Derbyshire, will be tackling the gruelling National Three Peaks Challenge.

Morclean Supports Chesterfield CAMRA

Chesterfield CAMRA turned to the local business community for sponsorship of their Winter Festival 2025, and Morclean responsed by sponsoring a beer.

The Annual Slow Rally in Guastalla, Italy

Morclean have been supporting the Slow Rally for many years. It’s a brilliantly unique event, where the winner comes in last!

The Slow Rally takes place in the town of Guastalla in Northern Italy. More and more cars take part each year including classic and vintage cars. The drivers wind their was through the cobbled Italian streets along the route. The driver that comes in last place is crowned the triumphant winner of the Slow Rally.

This event raises money equally for Anffas and Fairplay – an Italian and UK charity respectively. They both are vital organisations that provide support and information for disabled people and their families. These services rely on donations so this such an incredible and important way to raise awareness and funds for them both.

It’s a great event that focusses on community and a good time is had by all. Morclean are proud to support this event.

Supporting Susan Glover in helping the children of Tanzania

In our continued efforts to help support local businesses and individuals, we are proudly supporting Susan Glover in her attempt to raise money for the charity Childreach International. In Summer 2017 she will embark on her adventure to raise money for Childreach International; an inspiring children’s charity who work to restore children’s rights. Their vision is something close to Susan’s heart and is something that is fundamental to her current studies.

Supporting Local Teams


Morclean are proud to support local sports teams such as The Matlock Rugby Team and, most recently, the new Matlock Women’s Rugby Team.

We help by sponsoring the team events and committing to free promotion for the teams via our online channels.

Supporting Local Projects

Morclean has an abundance of equipment available to help the local community and we are always looking for ways to help.

We recently lent one of our bowser high-pressure washers to a local canal renovation project. The aim of the project is to restore the Staveley Town Lock and Hartington Harbour.

The Chesterfield Canal Trust has spent well over £120,000 on the project (£45,000 of which has come from donations) which is a huge amount of money. Unsurprisingly the Trust were really appreciative when we offered to lend them one of our water bowser pressure washer machines free of charge to help assist in the cleaning of the site.

The bowser is ideal for construction sites which don’t have immediate access to an electricity source and it runs solely off of a battery. It has been used to effectively wash down equipment and clean down stone.

Helping Young People in Business


CEO Peter Morley is a firm believer in ‘giving back to society’ and supports many local and national charities. Together with this he also works with The Prince’s Trust as a voluntary business mentor on The Prince’s Trust Enterprise programme by providing one-to-one support, guidance, encouragement and inspiration to young people.

The Prince’s Trust was created by HRH The Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales in 1976.

His Royal Highness is dedicated to improving the lives of disadvantaged young people in the UK. He founded His Trust to deliver on that commitment.

Maazi Food Festival

The Maazi food festival in Matlock is staged by volunteers and is an event which brings together local food producers and traders together in the historic spa town of Matlock.

The organisation aims to develop links between community and businesses. Morclean helps promote the event through their social media channels and volunteered to help organise the stalls. Crowd management was also offered with the supply of a Morclean vehicle to provide an access point to walkie talkies and access to equipment.

Christmas Markets in Matlock

The Matlock Victorian Christmas Market

Morclean likes to get into the festive spirit and has enjoyed help organise two festive events, the Matlock Victorian Christmas Market and the Matlock Christmas Market.

One event was organised privately and the other in liaison with the Matlock County Council.

Both events required use of a Morclean vehicle to carry equipment such as lighting.

The events were also heavily promoted on our corporate social media which resulted in a brilliant turnout to both markets.

The next Victorian Christmas Market is 1st to 3rd December, 2017. We shall see you there!

Matlock Dales and CAMRA Beer Festival
