TORCHLIGHT PROCESSION CANCELLED

We are very sorry to announce that this year’s Porthleven Torchlight Procession, planned for Bank Holiday Monday, has been cancelled.

Following the Government’s current restrictions and advice regarding the use of open flames, together with the significant risk of wildfires, we have taken the difficult decision that it would not be responsible to proceed with an event involving hundreds of people carrying lit torches.

We appreciate that this will be hugely disappointing, particularly for families and those who look forward to this much-loved Porthleven tradition each year. We had very much hoped to see the procession take place.

However, the safety of residents, visitors, volunteers and our surrounding environment must come first.

We would like to thank everyone who has supported the Torchlight Procession and especially those who have volunteered.

We hope to bring the Torchlight Procession back next year when conditions allow.

Thank you for your understanding.

It was a very interesting and inspiring evening in Penzance yesterday at the Homecoming Ceremony for the latest group of eight young men from A Band Of Brothers Cornwall, celebrating the completion of their three-month Rites of Passage programme.
A Band Of Brothers is an amazing charity that supports young men aged 18–25 from challenging backgrounds through mentoring, community and personal growth. It was inspiring to hear about the commitment these young men have shown to improving their lives, building positive relationships and creating brighter futures.
A huge congratulations to all eight young men and their dedicated mentors on this incredible achievement. It's such a privilege to donate and support such a fantastic charity. Wishing them every success for the future. 👏

Dear Rachael & Fellow Rotarians

I wanted to thank you All for the fabulous donation we’ve received. You have been so incredibly kind and extremely generous, helping the children and families affected by cancer, living in your local community, giving them hope, and something exciting they can focus on. I think you are All Amazing. Thank you so much.

Your donation will help children with cancer and their families, people you’ve never met, and people who will always be grateful to you for caring enough to make a difference to their lives.

By helping us, you have been such a huge support to our families when they have needed it most. I can’t begin to tell you the difference you will make to them. You are responsible for helping families going through unimaginable stress & putting Loads of smiles on lots of faces.

Every year we lose children and gain children, but you will have given them precious time together, in lovely surroundings that will help them forget the agonies they’re going through for a short while.

We really can’t thank you enough for your support, your generosity has Blown me away; it means the absolute world to us and the children and families will be over the moon!!!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
With Kind Regards & Best Wishes
