St Mewan Parish Council Community Award Winner for Trewoon 2022/2023

COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER AWARDS

The second of three St Mewan Parish Community Volunteer Award Winners 2022/23. Polgooth with Trelowth, Sticker with Hewaswater and Trewoon.

Nicola Bunney and Sandra Heyward work tirelessly, with other volunteers, to collect surplus food from partners that they no longer need and distribute this to the community via “pop-up” Community Larder days on a weekly basis, thus reducing hunger and food waste.

The ethos of this volunteer-led Community Larder is about caring for the person and or families within the community as a whole, anyone who needs a helping hand up, rather than a handout, particularly in these difficult times.

Well done to you all.

There were a lot of nominations this year and whilst you may not have scooped the win, St Mewan Parish Council continue to value all individual volunteers and groups who regularly contribute to making their community a better place. So a big thank you to everyone who does their bit.
