Millbrook schoolgirl bids for trampoline glory...
Bouncing her way to brilliance! A schoolgirl from Millbrook is bidding to become one of the top trampolinists for her age. Nyla Evely, who is 11, has already achieved significant success at regional and national competitions - and is bidding to compete in the World Age Group Championships in Russia in November. Nyla, who attends Carbeile Junior School in Torpoint, has been trampolining for three years and competes in the disciplines of Double Mini Trampoline as well as Individual and Synchro Trampoline. She trains for more than 20 hours a week after school and on Saturdays with the City of Plymouth Trampoline and Gymnastics Club. Her training includes strength and conditioning and skills work from her personal coaches Danny Anstey and Debbie Keeble. Nyla has already qualified for the British and English Championships in September and October. She has also been selected to compete in the first international for her country at the Loule Cup 2018 in October, in the Double Mini Trampoline. She was selected for the England DMT squad in May, but was then promoted to the Great Britain Squad in June. Nyla’s ultimate dream is to be a senior gymnast representing Great Britain at the Olympics. She was inspired by Beth Tweddle after watching the 2012 London Olympics and eventually persuaded her mum Lucy to take her to a local gym class after several months of nagging. Danny Anstey, who is not only her personal coach, but also head coach at the City of Plymouth Trampoline and Gymnastics Club said: “This is an incredible achievement for a girl of such a young age. Nyla’s work ethic and determination has been a key factor in her achieving selection to represent Great

Steve and Tony join Great Pilgrimage 90 Members of the Cornwall County Committee of The Royal British Legion are to join thousands on a Pilgrimage of Remembrance to World War One Battlefields. It will culminate in a Parade and Ceremony in Ypres as part of the end of the First World War Centenary Commemorations this August. The Royal British Legion event, known as the Great Pilgrimage 90 (GP90), takes place between August 5 and 9 and will be one of the largest in the charity’s history. GP90 will mark 90 years since the original Royal British Legion Pilgrimage in 1928, that saw 11,000 World War One veterans and war widows visit the battlefields of the Somme in France and Ypres in Belgium, a decade after the conflict ended. That Pilgrimage culminated in a march through Ypres to the Commonwealth War Grave Commission’s Menin Gate Memorial for a ceremony to commemorate the launch of the Hundred Days Offensive and in Remembrance of those who never returned. Steve Lewis (County Chairman) and Tony Vidler (County Standard Bearer), along
with 20 branches, will represent Cornwall and respective communities at this unique event. Each contingent will consist of a Wreath Layer and Standard Bearer. It should be noted that all 44 of Cornwall’s Legion Branches were strongly encouraged to attend to represent their respective communities by the county chairman. Steve and Tony, along with their fellow Cornwall Legion Branch representatives, will tour some of the same battlefields and cemeteries visited by those on the 1928 Pilgrimage, before marching along the original route through Ypres, to the Menin Gate on August 8 bearing their County Wreath and Standard. They will join more than 2,200 other Legion representatives and dignitaries, including civic and military guests from the UK, Commonwealth and Northern Europe who are taking part. Once at the Menin Gate, Steve will lay a wreath on behalf of Cornwall County. Steve said: “The Great Pilgrimage 90 is a unique opportunity for the Legion Community to come together and bear our
Standards along the same route in Ypres taken 90 years earlier by the veterans and widows of the First World War. We look forward to proudly representing Cornwall at the event.” As a local Champion of Remembrance, Steve has asked all three of Torpoint’s Legion Affiliated Schools to compose some meaningful words that he will attach to his wreath to bring their unique Remembrance message to the Menin Gate, where it will be displayed in a wreath installation for viewing by the general public until the end of August. The parade will start at midday and we encourage the public to make the trip across to Ypres for August 8 and fill the Market Square to watch the parade, the One Hundred Days Ceremony and then enjoy an afternoon of musical entertainment including the Central Band of the Royal British Legion.

Torpoint Mosquito Sailing Club held an open day on July 7 to encourage people to go along and try a variety of water-born activities. There were dinghies rigged, kayaks on the beach, gig rowing, sailboarding and even a trip out in a yacht. The weather and tide was on side for the activities with clear blue skies and a high tide and it was not only the youngsters out to try their hand at any of what was on offer. The club safety boat and various other volunteers were on hand to insure every ones safety but also for on the water tuition. Safety equipment was on hand all day. The event started at noon and carried on through the afternoon before the club’s big screen took a lot of the visitors in to watch the World Cup match. Refreshments were available throughout with pasties, cakes and sandwiches tempting everyone. Visitors signed in for a time to take part in a session on the water, which kept activities flowing and as far as the club and volunteers were concerned it was a very successful day. Well done to all the organisers and helpers and maybe the club boats will have more use as well as the regular racers.

Chance for talented youngster P e r s o n a l I n j u ry to join the Helen Round team Richard In the snowy month of March earlier this year, Helen Round moved into new shop and studio premises at The Barrow Centre in Mount Edgcumbe. Since then, the weather has definitely warmed up and the business is settling into its new home. Recently students from Torpoint Community College and Devonport High School for Girls have enjoyed a week of work experience with Helen and the team. “We are really enjoying being at Mount Edgcumbe and the shop is doing really well”, said Helen. “It’s great to chat with customers and really lovely to meet so many local people popping in to buy gifts. Customers really like the fact that the products are all made here on the premises and they can see us at work, sewing, cutting and printing. As well as buying things for themselves,
quite a number of people are purchasing items to send to relatives abroad – a great reminder of our wonderful area of Cornwall.” Helen now has a vacancy for a new apprentice which will be a full time position starting in August. Ideally the candidate will have some sewing experience and an interest in textiles. The Sewing Machine & Studio apprenticeship is a Level 3 qualification and the successful applicant will work alongside the team in the studio. Helen said: “We are really looking forward to welcoming a new member to our team. Both Hayley and Megan have completed an apprenticeship with us and are now in full time employment positions”. For more details visit the Government apprenticeship website or contact Helen at info@helenround.co.uk
Charity auction raises £5,500 for Luna’s Fund A charity night held at HMS Raleigh has raised over £5,500 for Luna’s Fund, a charity set-up to support parents who lose a child at birth, or just after. The charity was launched by Aimee Green, who works at HMS Raleigh, Torpoint, and her fiancé Ryan Conroy who teaches PE at Liskeard School and Community College. Their beautiful daughter Luna Valentina Conroy was born sleeping on the 29 November 2017. The event at HMS Raleigh, the first major fundraiser for the charity, was attended by around 130 people and included; a charity auction, raffle and an evening of dancing to a Freddie Mercury Tribute act and DJ. With lots donated by a range of organisations, the auction itself raised over £3,000. A self-catering holiday to Portugal and 200 euros towards flights, proved to be the most profitable donation, selling for £700! A late entry of a flowery suit, worn on the night by Ryan’s brother, Jack Conroy, one of the auctioneers, sold for £75. Due to the volume of donated prizes, they had to be split towards a raffle as well, raising £600, and a sweetie cart kindly provided free of charge by Laura Williams owner of Hello Sweetie of Plymouth, was sold out. Aimee Green said: “It was a remarkable evening which exceeded all of our expectations for the first ever Luna’s Fund event. It was important that we could use the event as a benchmark for people to see what we are all about; only love, laughter, memories and positivity. “The atmosphere in the room reflected this. We laughed, our friends laughed, memories were made, memories were shared, bonds were made, bonds were strengthened, awareness was raised, awkwardness reduced, money was raised and our target for the evening smashed. We can’t explain how grateful we are to have had the support from local
businesses, friends, colleagues and family who made our night happen. This is only the start of great things to come!” Luna’s Fund stands for ‘Love & Unity for Neonatal & Stillborns.’ Based on their own experience, Aimee and Ryan launched the charity earlier this year to provide other families, who suffer such a devastating loss, with the services and financial support to create new memories and rebuild their lives.

Cornish beach cleaning group Rame Peninsula Beach Care (www.ramepbc.org) is running a marine plastic art show in Kingsand from August 1 to 3. This will be an exhibition of visually-stunning and thought-provoking artworks made by over a dozen talented local artists relating to the issue of marine plastic pollution. The pieces on show will range from huge sculptures to clothing, glass engravings and a sand garden of millions of nurdles (pre-production plastic pellets) harvested from Tregantle beach on Whitsand Bay. The display will be both upstairs and downstairs at the Institute (clock tower) on the Cleave in Kingsand from 11am to 5pm each day. Some of the works will be for sale and there also will be plenty of information about the marine plastic issue in Cornwall and further afield, teas and coffees, raffle and merchandise. Claire Wallerstein, from RPBC, who has recently returned from the Sail Against Plastic expedition surveying plastic in the Arctic, said: “It was sobering to realise how much plastic waste is littering even the remotest beaches just 600 miles from the North Pole, and we hope this event will really help to make people aware of what a global problem this is. “Marine plastic is needlessly killing species at every level in the ocean from plankton up to whales, and this is true everywhere from the Pacific ‘Garbage Patch’ to Cornwall and the Arctic.
“We’re currently producing more plastic per year than the entire combined weight of all the human beings on Earth – and that amount is growing exponentially. “Plastic is an incredible material that has transformed our lives, and yet the often-thoughtless ways in which we’re now using and disposing of it threaten to destroy the natural world we all love. “We hope these incredible artworks will help to educate visitors about the problem and inspire them to take positive action to help turn this toxic tide of pollution”. Rame Peninsula Beach Care has been running regular beach cleans along Whitsand Bay as well as other awareness-raising events and campaigns for the past five years. In that time the group has removed thousands of sacks of marine plastic and ghost gear from local shorelines, all thanks to its army of passionate and dedicated local volunteers. The group has recently completed a three-year series of quarterly litter surveys on little-visited Polhawn Beach, with a total of almost 70,000 pieces of manmade debris being painstakingly counted and categorised from just the 100m survey stretch. RPBC are keen to find additional helpers to staff the art show. If anybody is available to help out please contact Claire on info@ramepbc.org or on 01752 823308 or 07815 567234.

Live music is alive and kicking at Maker!
Local families turned up to celebrate the launch Aweneck Studio CIC in the Nissen Hut and tenants from the Barrack Block at Maker Heights opened their doors on June 24 and invited the public to see all the positive creative work that is happening at this much loved place. Eighteen months ago the Napoleonic Barrack Block was under threat of being purchased by private developers, but the community rallied round to keep it in the ownership of the Rame Conservation Trust, and once again the building is home to creative studios. A series of art and photography based postcards marked the birth of the vibrant Maker Heights Collective, each one representing the diverse array of talent taking place at Maker. As part of the campaign to renovate the Barrack Block and local musicians donated songs and, with the support of Disc Manufacturing Servces (DMS), Maker Tapes 1 was released. The idea for Maker Tapes came from Tom Ogilvie, bass player in Land of the Giants and director of Maker with Rame CIC, who has worked tirelessly to keep live music at Maker. On June 24 Maker Tapes 2 was launched a stunning 18 track CD with songs from musicians including internationally renowned composer Simon Dobson, Antimatador, Jakob Kodicek, Tom Calladine, Hillside Heroes, Jo Phillips, Magic Moments, Up the Creek, Pete Staniforth, Amanda Knights, Sally Brinkworth, Norman Manx, Benjamin John, Fernflower, Derndingle, March Nicholl, Jack Smale and Maker Ladies Choir. The launch took place in the Patchwork Lounge, which was opened two years ago upstairs in the Barrack Block by Joshua Elleschild. Just weeks after the studio opened Josh, aged 27, an avid cyclist, guitarist and composer, suffered a brain haemorrhage. Josh was determined to continue recording at
Dan Hillman and Geoff Lea from Antimatador Education Music Project led by Jo Ballard, and accompanied by Richard James. Following this spell binding performance of children were young musicians Willow Oldham and Chloe Taylor, Antimatador and Derndingle. To purchase a copy of the Maker Tapes 1 or 2, contact Tom@makerwithramecic. org.uk You can also hear more on why music at Maker matters to Josh and Tom in the Maker Memories: Live at the Barracks short music documentaries on the Maker Memories YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/channel/ UC_y4t4IOPfNiCaZA4tfogNg
Patchwork Studios directors Josh Elleschild and Tom Ogilvie
Patchwork, and with the help of Ben Barker, Darren Newton, Dick Ogilvie, Charlotte Turner and friends, has opened a larger ground floor community music space. Josh said: “I initially set up Patchwork with the idea of it becoming a small commercial recording studio. The project just got of the ground in 2016 when I suffered a stroke completely out of the blue. I’ve always understood the importance of community and the power behind music, but after having a stroke and experiencing just how tough life can be for some I decided Patchwork could offer so much more. “The idea is that rather than just use the studio for profit, it will drive a community centre focused on improving people’s lives through the arts, with the aim of including a performance space, a place to host
development workshops and groups, and maybe even a small cinema! “I teamed up with Tom Ogilvie, an Above: Vinny Polák and friends from the Rame experienced events manager, and Will Rogers, Peninsula Home Education Music Project an experienced youth music worker, and secured a larger space in the Barrack Block and the work began. Now, two years on from my stroke, we have opened our doors to over a hundred smiling faces, both young and old. The project is still very much a work in progress, but even with just the one space open it’s amazing what can be achieved”. Both Josh and Tom were nurtured as young musicians by the youth music work run by Maker Music and Arts. Now young adults themselves, they are passionate about supporting live music for the next generation. The first to perform in Patchwork Lounge Jason, Jon and Jacob from Antimatador on Sunday were the Rame Peninsula Home
People always come first at Torcare... Residents celebrate Centenary of end of First World War in style
Residents of Porte Rouge were invited by Torpoint Nursery and Infant School to attend a Community Tea Party at the Council Chambers in celebration of 100 years of the end of the First World War. Residents were treated to a wonderful afternoon of entertainment from children from Torpoint Infant School and some ‘Sea Chanty Songs’ by military personnel and headteacher, Elizabeth Carney Haworth. The afternoon was very emotional for us all. The Torpoint Nursing Centre welcomed The Ferryboaters Choir with open arms - thoroughly enjoying a variety of songs and harmonies, little ditties and comic renditions. A delicious cream tea was organised and afterwards everyone sat together chatting the afternoon away with a cup of tea and a scone.

Lottery funding for new foraging courses for people aged 50 plus
Vix Hill-Ryder, a 36 year old social entrepreneur from Millbrook has been awarded £15,000 from the Transform Ageing Programme, funded by the Big Lottery, to deliver an exciting new project called ‘Our Grandparents’ Secrets’. Vix founded the award winning social enterprise, the Family Foraging Kitchen CIC in 2013. The business provides foraging walks, wild food cookery classes and also runs courses in traditional countryside crafts. A percentage of profit made from their ticketed walks and courses allow them to provide free courses to those experiencing local food poverty and malnutrition in the communities in which they work. Starting from this autumn, a brand new programme of courses will be designed and delivered exclusively
for those aged 50 plus, in foraging and wild food walks, cookery classes and traditional countryside crafts. These include bee keeping, basketry, spoon carving, botanical illustration and willow weaving. An activity programme is also being designed that can be offered within a care home setting, bringing workshops straight to residents. Working with an experienced local film maker and with students from Plymouth University’s Media Department, a short documentary film and a book will be published alongside this project also called ‘Our Grandparents’ Secrets’. Vix said: “We are currently looking for people age 50 plus to appear in the film or take part in a recorded voice
interview that will be transcribed for the book, from cooks, artists, knitters, weavers and felters to potters, fishermen, mechanics, gardeners, cobblers, butchers, musicians, florists, dress makers, carvers, storytellers, musicians and more! We are looking for those with a traditional skill, a craft, or a hobby, or a life tip or wisdom to share”. The purpose of the documentary and book is to make a record of skills and wisdoms that not only shows appreciation for and values our elders but could inspire younger generations to lead a more sustainable, self-sufficient and meaningful lifestyle. It could lead someone into a craft, trade or useful life skill and hobby. “I hope it will work to reignite a
cultural set of traditional values, such as ‘make do and mend’ and ‘grow your own’. Our Grandparents’ Secrets is a project where peoples’ knowledge and wisdom will be recorded as a legacy gift for not only their own grandchildren to cherish, but that they can in turn pass down to their own”. Vix also hopes that through meeting new people involved with the film and book that they could potentially offer local employment opportunities to skilled craftsmen and women who would be interested in teaching what they do as a course. Anyone interested in taking part, supporting or investing in the project can contact Vix by emailing kitchen@ familyforagingkitchen.co.uk, telephone 01752 823424 or by post at 2 Clinton Terrace Millbrook, Cornwall, PL10 1EG and she will aim to reply within 24 hours.

Huge thanks to Lion Andy Brownhill
Members of the Torpoint and Rame Peninsula Lions gathered to celebrate the official handover of the presidency of the club from Lion Andy Brownhill to Lion Richard From old President Lion Andy Brownhill... Pymm at a barbecue hosted by Lion Steve Murray and his wife. Richard said: “It is with great pleasure that my first duty is to thank the outgoing President, Lion Andy Brownhill for leading the club over the last two years. He has led the club with good humour and he hands over the presidency in great shape.” Well done Lion Andy and thank you for all you have done to support Lionism in the Torpoint and Rame area.
Lions are on the radar!
The Torpoint and Rame Peninsula Lions Club was one among a number of local groups to contribute to the purchase of a new radar system which was recently installed at the National Coastwatch Institute station at Rame Head. Torpoint and Rame Peninsula Lions agreed to support the project under the leadership of immediate past President, Lion Andy Brownhill. President Lion Richard Pymm said: “This project is a good example of community cooperation. The total cost of the new radar was in the order of £8,500 and no one local group could be expected to fund the whole project. A number of local groups and beneficiaries contributed to help make this project possible: Liskeard, Looe and Torpoint and Rame Lions Clubs, Torpoint Line Dancers, Torpoint Sequence Dancers, Cornwall Community Fund, Tesco’s bag help scheme, the Plym Masonic lodge, Michael Hartland and other anonymous donations.” Station manager Colin Scott explained: “The old radar was good but had its limitations. The radar beam was narrow and focused on the horizon, this meant that smaller vessels may not show up on the radar.
President Lion Richard Pymm and Station Manager Colin Scott
...to new President Lion Richard Pymm
“The traditional sweeping radar line did not identify ships so we needed to make visual identification using binoculars. Critically vessels close to the shore were below the radar beam and did not show up on radar at all so we relied solely on visual contact, which was difficult on foggy days. “The new ‘Furuno’ radar changes all this. The new radar beam is much wider and has much higher definition so can see both the horizon and the sea immediately below us in much greater detail. The screen is in full colour and is steady. The radar is linked to ship identification technology so we now have a screen that shows all the vessels in our area together with their name, type, course and speed. In recent foggy conditions, the new radar identified over 200 vessels we would simply not have known were there using the old radar system.”
Historic event at The Mill as new stand is opened It was an historic evening down at The Mill, with Claire Kitching opened the new 110 seater stand named in memory of her mother Glynis who sadly lost her battle to cancer in 2014. Glynis was the club’s treasurer and welfare officer and also ran the gatehouse on matchdays and was a true stalwart of the club. The special occasion and visit of Argyle for the first time in a number of years, attracted a crowd of more than 500. Argyle had to wait until first half stoppage time to open the scoring with a goal from Ruben Lameiras. During the first

half Torpoint goalkeeper Jason Peters made a number of good saves. After making 11 changes at half-time,
manager Derek Adams saw the Pilgrims run out convincing winners against tiring opposition. Argyle’s second half
goals came from Freddie Ladapo, Graham Carey (56), Gregg Wylde (two) and David Fox.
What a walking success!
Around 75 people took part in the Family Day walk at Mount Edgcumbe. Individuals and groups such as the Friends of Thanckes Park, Luna’s Fund, Torpoint Sea Scouts, and Torpoint Brownies and Guides all took part in the sponsored 10km walk around Mount Edgcumbe Park last month. The day proved to be a hot and sunny one and all walkers completed the course within two hours (possibly due to the kick off of the England/ Panama match at 1pm!). Walkers enjoyed a fun day out with free drinks and a BBQ. Monies were raised for a number of charities including the Torpoint and Rame Peninsula Lions. “What an amazing day! Great weather, super company, enjoyable exercise and a brilliant burger to boot,” one walker enthused. Trophies will be awarded, once all the monies are received, for the most money raised by an organised group; the most money raised by an individual (over 15 years old) and the most money raised by an individual (under 15 years old).
Larry La Roche before the shave.. Torpoint’s Jade Rice-Alor has been busy raising funds as part of her bid to be voted Miss England later this year. Jade, who is the current Miss South West England, has already organised car boot sales and quiz nights and next up is a charity family fun day at Torpoint FC on August 4. Alongside her own efforts, local individuals have also been helping Jade to raise funds. Daniel ‘Larry’ La Roche volunteered to do a sponsored beard shave after spending seven months growing his magnificent facial feature! Vicky at Hair by Victoria shaved off the beard, finishing with a cut throat shave for a clean cut look! Meanwhile Lisa Hocking had her head shaved, again by Hair by Victoria, at a cheese and wine quiz night on July 18, which raised £800.
...during and (below) after the shave
Hair-raising fund raising! Jade is hoping to raise several thousands of pounds for the Miss England charity - Beauty With a Purpose - and her own local charity Luna’s Fund (Love and Unity for Neonatal and Stillborns). Jade said: “A local family very sadly experienced losing their newborn daughter. Amazingly
from their experience they are wanting to better the lives of parents who have to go through this and have set up a charity which will provide an array of services for families to use to create new memories and help them to look forward to their future.”

COMMUNITY SPIRIT AT ITS BEST FOR TORPOINT CIVIC PARADE
Honorary Burgess for Coun John Crago
Once again the community spirit was an amazing sight at the Civic Parade held on Sunday July 8, as over 200 people marched proudly through Torpoint to St James Church for the Civic Service. Leading the Parade on his debut was Bobtail Bobbie from the Royal Navy/Royal Marines riding stables. The Plymouth Pipe Band provided superb musical accompaniment to the Parade, at very short notice, which was greatly appreciated. Thank you to all who attended including representatives of local organisations, Mayor’s Chaplain Rev’d Canon Lynn Parker, Mayor’s Cadet Joshua Foster, Chairman of Cornwall Council Mary May, visiting dignitaries and Torpoint Town Councillors. All were overwhelmed with the Parade and the number of contributors from
the town. A big thank you to pupils from Torpoint Nursery and Infant School and Carbeile Junior School who all sang beautifully in church, thank you to the staff, children and parents who supported them. Congratulations to Councillor John Crago, awarded the first Honorary Burgess for his service and dedication to Torpoint. The Person of Courage award was presented to Steve Martin having survived a near fatal heart attack and fall into a canal and been rescued. Miss Elizabeth Begbie (Betty) was awarded the Citizen of the Year having musically supported many local organisations over the last 60 plus years. Mrs Carol Lamb from Bertha’s Babes received the Organisation of the Year Award on behalf of the Sequence Dancers, who
have fundraised for many years for local causes. The final award was presented to Chris Hancock, Mayor’s Cadet for 2017/2018. Over £2,000 was donated during the last civic year to the Mayor’s chosen charity Cancer Research UK, and a cheque was presented to Joyce Smith from the Torpoint Branch. All the awards were presented by Town Mayor Councillor Lambert Keise assisted by Mayors’ Cadet Joshua Foster. Signed copies of ‘The Making of a Cornish Town’ were presented to the visiting dignitaries. Mayor Lambert Keise was delighted with the event and of course the weather. He said: “This is the first time a horse has led the Parade adding to the momentous occasion, it really was a truly fabulous community event.”

Why I believe I have always believed in God and I was brought up to go to church in Callington. As I grew up I continued to go to church but there were more important things in life like farming and the local young farmers club. There we enjoyed farm walks, I learned many livestock tasks like trimming cows hoofs, and dehorning calves. I took part in several stock judging events and there was the more fun side with discos and various cabaret competitions. One evening soon after passing my driving test I couldn’t start my car. I borrowed my Dad’s new Vauxhall Cavalier. While following other young farmers I attempted to overtake travelling very fast near a bend. There was a car coming in the other direction. I swerved to miss it and lost control of the car. It hit a bank and rolled onto its side, it seemed to roll forever coming to rest in a ditch well out of sight from the road. There were five of us in the car. We all got out without a scratch on us. A well designed car
including croquet, tennis with nets made out of bunting and ring toss will be laid out on the cork oak lawn so families can relax, play and picnic in glorious surrounds. The National Trust’s ‘50 things’ to do before you’re 11 ¾’ encourages families to participate in traditional outdoor activities. These include making daisy chains, having a snail race and making a grass trumpet. There’s a chance to tick off loads of the ‘50 things’ activities at Antony and booklets are available to pick up from reception. From families who enjoy organised activities led by one of the National Trust
from a safety point of view! Or did God look after us? If so, why us, when so many are killed or injured in much less dramatic accidents? As there were no mobile phones in those days no one came to our aid except people who had witnessed the accident. Some of whom gave us a lift back to Callington police station which was closed, so we made our way home. I felt like the worst person in the world. I realised through my own stupidity I could have killed my four friends. How could I get over that? The next morning our local cattle feed salesman called. He said to me God was looking after me and I needed to be thankful. From that point on I started to follow Jesus much more seriously. I came to know his forgiveness and found he was helping me to follow him. I can never doubt that Jesus for some reason had his hand upon my life. God is interested in your life as well, he loves you and has a purpose for your life. Will you follow him?

A well-attended concert featuring Torpoint Lady Singers, Saltash Ladies Choir, and gifted soloist Neil Asprey, has raised over £300 for Cancer Research. Neil’s phrasing and musicality delighted the audience and both choirs were in good voice too. Torpoint Lady Singers performed a love ballad of a girl jilted by a handsome rogue - in French, Mon Amant de St Jean - while the Saltash Ladies did an inspiring rendering of the Rhythm of Life. The evening ended with a joint rendering of Every Time I Feel the Spirit by both choirs. Approximately £325 was raised for Cancer Research, this year’s TLS charity.
Catching a memory Mary Cooper welcomed everyone to the latest meeting of Torpoint WI and introduced guest speaker, Joanne Shepherd, whose talk ‘Catching a Memory’ really inspired everyone. Joanne brought along a selection of the craftwork she has produced including some beautiful quilts, cushion covers and aprons. All of these items incorporate memorabilia specific to the person receiving them, including such things as outgrown baby clothes, sports items, family photographs, etc. and for people suffering from dementia they are really perfect, being tailored to their own special memories. Everyone was inspired by such brilliant ideas. Janet James from Maker with Rame WI then gave a report on the AGM held in Cardiff. The hall was specifically decorated in colours to commemorate 100 years of the Suffrage movement. After a rousing version of Jerusalem Janet said the resolution about mental health was passed unanimously and followed
by the very interesting speakers, Stella Rimington, the former MI5 Director, and Huw Edwards the leading presenter of the BBC News, made for a very enjoyable meeting. Mary thanked Sue for arranging two brilliant visits, to the Whitsand Bay Fortifications which formed part of the Walk for Macmillan, raising monies for a donation, and to the Research Facility at the Peninsula Medical Foundation at Derriford which was so interesting and enlightening. Sue has arranged two forthcoming visits, to Hendra Farm near Looe and Lanhydrock House. Competition results:- Letter J 1st Barbara Brimacombe, 2nd Barbara Gates, 3rd Jean Morgan and Flower of the Month 1st Joan Jones, 2nd Pat Woodhouse, 3rd Jean Morgan. The next meeting ‘Brunel’s South West Legacy’ will be held on August 22 in St James Hall at 7.30 pm and visitors are always very welcome.
Cost of ferry toll is Brian explains role set to rise by 33% of first responder Plans to increase tolls on the Torpoint Ferry and Tamar Bridge from £1.50 to £2 are being proposed. The Tamar Bridge and Torpoint Ferry Joint Committee say the toll has not been increased for more than eight years and the proposed rise is broadly in line with inflation since the last toll increase in 2010. A public consultation on the proposed increase is currently being undertaken and the deadline for submission of views is August 8. A brochure explaining the proposal states: “Over the next few years routine operation and maintenance will continue along with further Bridge carriageway resurfacing, painting and deck waterproofing. “At the Torpoint Ferry, major refits are scheduled and improvements will be made to shoreside pedestrian access and traffic management. “Our costs are increasing much faster than our income as there has been very low traffic growth on the crossings. The cost of delivering a safe and reliable service and improvement projects has already resulted in expenditure exceeding income and this is not sustainable.” A consultation questionnaire is available on line at www.tamarcrossings.co.uk and more information can be obtained by e-mailing consultation@ tamarcrossings.co.uk or by calling 01752 361577.
The Torpoint Wives Group met on June 28 at Cornerstone Church, Torpoint. Secretary Elaine Searle, in the absence of Eve Oates, Chairperson, welcomed Brian Jones, Team Leader, First Responder with Torpoint Ambulance. She thanked him for stepping in at short notice for First Responder Rob White who was away. She also hoped we had not dragged him away from the football, but luckily he was not too worried. Brian explained what his duties were, arriving first at the scene of an emergency in the home or a traffic accident, to first assess the patient’s condition, to start treatment and to maintain this until further help arrives. He explained that a calm approach is essential for the patient’s well-being and for the relatives who are traumatised by the situation. The demand for ambulances has increased and the waiting time is another testing time for all concerned. He is allowed to use defibrillators for cardiac resuscitation, but first responders are not permitted to perform any intrusive procedures. Elaine thanked Brian for an enlightening talk on his duties. Tea was served by Brenda who also provided the raffle to which Eve had contributed.
