A little look back at our first year as Porthmuer CIC 💙
We’re a small community interest company working alongside Charlestown Harbour to bring people together through heritage, creativity and opportunities to get involved.
Our Heritage Days brought traditional crafts and skills to the harbour, with hands-on willow weaving and demonstrations from the Cornish Blacksmiths Collective - opportunities to meet skilled makers, see them at work and learn more about their crafts.
Our free Wood & Waves workshops saw timber from the tall ship Kajsamoor transformed into little boats, harbour houses and colourful fish, with support from FEAST Cornwall.
We also ran a stall and fundraising raffle at Skipper Festival, gathered your ideas for the harbour’s future with our survey and Q&A event, and last Christmas your generosity helped make free Santa visits and gifts possible for local families.
Thank you to everyone who has joined in, volunteered, donated, bought a raffle ticket or shared an idea. It all helps us build something together.
🎄 Next up: we’ll be back with a stall at Charlestown Harbour’s Christmas Markets, and launching another Christmas appeal to help local families soon.
🙌 Fancy lending a hand? We’re looking for volunteers to help at the Christmas Markets and with events, creative activities, fundraising and tasks behind the scenes in the coming year. Whether you can spare a couple of hours or would like to get involved regularly, we’d love to hear from you.
