This has been purchased using Parish Council funds after the public meeting held last year. To complete the project we have had the unit installed near the entrance to the SOUTH HILL PARISH HALL in Golberdon, which after consideration and taking into account the activities within the community and the playing fields location was considered the best possible site to install a unit.
Well, the big issue of the moment is the budget. The Chancellor’s settlement is complicated and it has taken our officers some time to analyse and prepare a briefing for us to explain the implications.
Not a title to cheer you up on a dreary wet January morning, our first meeting of 2016, but Simon Dell, a retired Policeman talked about his experiences with wit and humour.
My name is Fiona and I live in Golberdon. Myself and a friend Dawn from Trevigro are collecting for Gables Dogs and Cats home to help them over the Christmas period, unfortunately a time in which they see their numbers increase dramatically.
We are looking for donations of food, treats, toys, good condition blankets and towels. If you are able to donate any of the items listed above please drop them into Berrio Farm, Golberdon, PL17 7NL (Heading towards Pensilva turn right before Kerney Bridge and we are the 4th house on the right with the sign of the public footpath)
Alternatively you can phone me on either 363410 or 07955 288180 and I can arrange collection.
For further information on Gables please visit their website at www.gablesfarm.org.uk
Thank you in advance for your help and generosity for this worthwhile cause.
I moved to Trevigro in February 2014. When I say moved, I was still working as a Mechanical Engineer in Falmouth at the time and it was quite a commute! Worth it though. From the minute my wife Rachael and I arrived, we were greeted by neighbours who quickly introduced us to the community, St Sampson’s Church, brought us up to speed with what is going on, the community strengths, the community weaknesses and a rich history of community life. I knew we had come to a very special place.
As this item is published the United Nations will be starting its climate change summit in Paris.
With Christmas fast approaching, now is the perfect time to think about making a few crafty gifts for loved ones. Personally, I just love receiving a homemade present as it is also a gift of the precious time it took to make, which is priceless given that we all lead such busy lives.
On a peaceful smallholding, our latest advertiser is Coombe Small Animal Hotel, situated just north of Golberdon, run by Richard and Julia Squires.
Have you ever played a brass instrument or would like the chance to learn?
The Callington Town Band is wanting to recruit players for its euphonium, baritone horn and bass sections although any other instrument would be welcomed.
I was so pleased to be able to attend the remembrance events again this year. Various news reports suggest that attendance is increasing and I do get a sense that this is true of our part of the world. It is so important that we do remember all those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
One or two people have been in touch about the multiple contacts they have had from electoral services. Please don’t blame Cornwall Council. The new system was introduced by central government but it does appear to be very bureaucratic with a lot of duplication. Please persevere. We need to try and ensure everyone that is eligible to vote is on the register before future elections take place. A Housing Enquiry Form has to go out first and when you reply each individual named on it will receive their own form to fill in to register. It is easy to think you have already replied and ignore it but if you don’t, you will trigger a cascade of action. Even if you do reply, you may still get a ‘reminder’. I’m sure it will get easier but for this year, with a completely new register having to be compiled, it is causing a few problems.
