Free Exercise Taster Session
St Sampson’s Church Going for Gold!
Our accolade of a bronze Eco award is an achievement, but we want silver and then gold. With everything we do at St Sampson’s Church, we try to consider environmental impacts. From the cups we drink from, the energy we use and the care of the building every day and as part of the restoration project. We are pleased to say we are not far off a silver award, which only three other churches in Cornwall have achieved.
Tamar Valley Health PPG
The PPG would like to introduce you to different teams of clinicians so you can see why your call is triaged and you are given an appointment or telephone call with the person best qualified to help you. We had a discussion with Paul Symonds about the roles of paramedics. Paul is the Team leader of the Acute Care Team and has recently qualified as an Advanced Practitioner. There is also Ben who is a prescribing paramedic and John who has recently joined the team and has 20 years’ experience as a paramedic and 5 years in primary care (home visits) as well as Neil, nurse practitioner and Julia who is a physician associate.
Climate Change event St. Mellion Oct 1st 2022
“If we wait for governments, it will be too late. If we act as individuals, it will be too little. But if we act as communities, it might just be enough, and it might just be in time.’
