Royal Cornwall Show bus from Age UK


Royal Cornwall Show coach trip – Saturday 8th June 2024

Age UK will be providing transport to and from the Showground, entry to the Showground and a pasty lunch at the discounted cost of £14.75 per person. Age UK have a marquee throughout the day for any of the group to rest and enjoy conversation. A refreshing beverage will be available from 3.15 – 4pm at no extra cost.

Complete the forms below and return to Jeff Edwards, in the post to our address at Boscawen House below, or by email (jeffrey.edwards@ageukcornwall.org.uk), as soon as possible, as places are limited; allocations will be on a first-come, first-served basis. It would be helpful if the forms could be received by Friday 19th April, with any booking adjustments and payments to be received by no later than Friday 3rd May.

Please note: All guests must be able to cope with getting on and off a coach, coach transport, the terrain of the Royal Cornwall Showground, a significant walk from the Showground car park to our marquee and back, and the anticipated volume of people, as well as potentially very warm weather. Individuals requiring support may be accompanied by a family member/carer, who will also be required to pay
£14.75. This offer is only valid using one of our coaches for travel to and from the Showground; the offer is not valid for those who wish to use alternative forms of transport.
I look forward to hearing from you. If you have any questions or queries about the event or this offer,
please feel free to call me on 01872 223388 or 01872 266384.

East Cornwall Search and Rescue


East Cornwall Search and Rescue Team is a charity made up of over 40 unpaid volunteers who are on call 24/7, 365 days of the year, supporting statutory emergency services to search and rescue missing persons. Each year it costs around £25,000 to keep the team running, we do not receive any funding from the Government and therefore heavily rely on public generosity.

We are proud to announce that one of our Search Dogs has recently qualified and is now able to assist the team in searches for High Risk Missing Persons. TegOrs who lives in the parish and his handler have worked tirelessly for over two years. Massive congratulations to them both for the incredible work put in. TegOrs brother Mac is not far behind and will hopefully qualify this year.
