St Mewan Parish Council Community Award Winner for Sticker with Hewas water 2022/2023

Published: 30 Mar 23

COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER AWARDS 2022/2023 The last of three St Mewan Parish Community Volunteer Award Winners 2022/23. Polgooth with Trelowth, Sticker with Hewaswater and Trewoon. A lovely welcoming lunchtime spent meeting with the St Marks Winter Warmer Team in Sticker who have won this year’s St Mewan Parish Community Volunteer Award. The Team opened the doors to St Marks Church Hall through the winter months and have personally contributed in offering their culinary delights with a selection of 3 homemade soups, bread rolls, beverages, and biscuits all for £2.00! The purpose of this was in response to the energy crisis, to welcome individuals who may want a friendly chat in a warm and comfortable space through some cold winter months. It was especially rewarding that one lady had learnt some valuable information, just through friendly chat about entitlement to financial support because where she lives is off the Gas Grid. One delighted visitor, well done ladies. Oh, and by the way the James Martin Cream of Cauliflower Soup was at the winning post this week 😊 There was 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. Read More...

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

Published: 30 Mar 23

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. Read More...

St Mewan Parish Council Community Volunteer Award Winner for Polgooth with Trelowth 2022/2023

Published: 16 Mar 23

A super morning spent meeting with 25/170 members of Polgooth Community & Garden Club who have won this year’s St Mewan Parish Community Volunteer Award. They meet once a month and everyone is made to feel very welcome with a typed schedule of what is planned for the months ahead. Chatting to some people, who even happen to live in neighbouring parishes, the meetings are invaluable as they are not just about gardening but helping individuals overcome social isolation. They continue to build a strong based community spirit with all their planned events and have recently raised £500 to assist financially in the renewal of the new floor in Polgooth Village Hall. Well done! There was 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. Read More...
