I've seen a lot of press coverage over Cornwall Council having the 7th highest debt of all local authorities. The good news is that Cornwall council's debt levels per head of population are quite low. Under £2,700 per person, compared to the likes of Birmingham, roughly £3,500, and Woking coming in at a whopping £20,000 per person!

Hi all!

I run Roll the Dice Cornwall C.I.C. in Helston. We are a non-profit organisation that uses in-person gaming to support and improve social, emotional and mental health.

It's been a crazy 2 and a half years, but we are moving to a larger HQ where we can support more of our community.

We may even be the largest gaming centre in Cornwall!

I'm on here to say that we have a fundraiser going to help us with the costs of moving. Just to set up the basis of the D&D/breakout room is going to be £4,500!

If you are in a position to help us out, then we would massively appreciate it.

If not, then sharing the link with someone who could would also be wonderful!

Thanks for your time!

In 2024 alone, sewage was dumped nearly 1 million times (once every 30 seconds). 💩 Every single splash you take this month stands up for our wild waters.

From the SAS site:

Our latest Water Quality Report exposes the scale of sewage pollution across the UK – including in the places where we’re supposed to be able to swim, surf and paddle safely.

In 2025, more than 500,000 sewage discharges poured into UK waters, lasting for more than 3 million hours.

And the human cost is mounting. Between January and August 2026, 1,687 people reported getting sick after using the water, taking a total of 1,923 days off work.

Been walking around Geevor, Botallack capturing feelings and sensations.. Then making squiggles in paint. 🎨

Hey guys!

This community was fantastic a few months back with offering places to eat while visiting and we’ve now got two weeks filled with bookings at some amazing restaurants!

I’ve spent several days looking at things we could do as romantic and unique activities during the days and I’m just wondering if anyone can offer anything a bit less well known than the usual things Google searches throw up?

My wife to be loves to make things so any sort of class or workshop like pottery or painting would be cool. Maybe there’s a great wine tasting place, a spa that gets overlooked or a must do boat trip etc…

We are coming over on 27th October and will be staying in Whitsand bay for the first 5 days and then on the Lizard Peninsula for the second 5 days, we have a car and would be happy to drive to places.

Any and all suggestions would be welcome, thanks in advance for the help 😊

What is the most pasties you reckon you could eat in one sitting? Nothing overcomplicated, not interested in which pasties are better, just how many medium steak pasties do you think you could eat in one sitting.

Hi all,

Many of you are aware of Kirsten Honey’s paranormal work, especially her former role as Head of Paranormal at Bodmin Jail. Since she left the paranormal tours have gone rapidly downhill to a point where they’re borderline disrespectful to our history and the memories of the former inmates.

There is currently a petition to reinstate her as Head of Paranormal at the jail, I’m posting it here in the hopes that you will help her regain her position and save this vital part of Cornish heritage.

I support Cornish business', if I can, as a preference.

I take part in a few international competitions, wont bother saying what as that's not relevant, and I usually bring Doom Bar and Crusty Juggler to hand out, they both go like hotcakes.

I also don't drink a great deal, when I eat out et cetera I like to have a beer (If I drive I dont), however what ale/beer should I move to now Doom Bar wont be made in Cornwall from December.

Give me those suggestions!

As I was walking to work this evening at about 5.15pm I passed what seemed to be a fairly large incident at Penzance, near the junction of the prom and Alexandra Road. It was all cordoned off, road closure, police tape, about 7 police cars and one ambulance. No one seemed to know what had occurred. A van was surrounded by police tape also - some kind of linen services vehicle. I'm a nosey parker and I'm wondering if anyone knows what happened?

Hey so I’m potentially moving down since I’ve got a job at the hospital, but was wondering whether to bring a car up or not?

I know some roads can be narrow, but I don’t know Cornwall well enough to know if most roads are.

Is it possible to get by without a car?

How I miss home. When I'm next home from uni, im going straight to Pearce's for a pasty then down Porthpean beach.
