  • Just a Balloon Report Jan 2017
    Just a Balloon BALLOON DEBRIS ON CORNISH BEACHES Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition | January 2017 BACKGROUND This report has been compiled by the Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition (CPPC), a sub-group of the Your Shore Network (set up and supported by Cornwall Wildlife Trust). The aim of the evidence presented here is to assist Cornwall Council’s Environment Service with the pursuit of a Public Spaces Protection Order preventing Balloon and Chinese Lantern releases in the Duchy. METHODOLOGY During the time period July to December 2016, evidence relating to balloon debris found on Cornish beaches was collected by the CPPC. This evidence came directly to the CPPC from members (voluntary groups and individuals) who took part in beach-cleans or litter-picks, and was accepted in a variety of formats:- − Physical balloon debris (latex, mylar, cords & strings, plastic ends/sticks) − Photographs − Numerical data − E mails − Phone calls/text messages − Social media posts & direct messages Each piece of separate balloon debris was logged, but no ‘double-counting’ took place i.e. if a balloon was found still attached to its cord, or plastic end, it was recorded as a single piece of debris. PAGE 1 RESULTS During the six month reporting period balloon debris was found and recorded during beach cleans at 39 locations across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly shown here:- Cornwall has an extensive network of volunteer beach cleaners and beach cleaning groups. Many of these are active on a weekly or even daily basis, and so some of the locations were cleaned on more than one occasion during the period, whilst others only once.

  • 9.2 Trace- 100- the Day Our World Changed
    Trace Trace: 100: The Day our World Changed By Elizabeth Bennett Abstract On August 3rd 2014, I attended a performance of WildWorks’ 100: The Day our World Changed, a continuous theatrical event from dawn till dusk, travelling from the harbour of Cornish town Mevagissey to the nearby Lost Gardens of Heligan. The Treymayne family have owned the Heligan Estate for over 400 years, providing employment in various forms to the surrounding three parishes of Mevagissey, St Ewe and Gorran. Due to storm damage and decades of inattention, the gardens were discovered in a derelict state in 1990, when John Nelson and Tim Smit led a groundbreaking restoration project. The Lost Gardens of Heligan now welcomes 200,000 visitors a year. Nelson and Smit made a vital discovery within days of their initial explorations – the old gardeners’ toilet (Thunderbox Room) – where the pencilled names of past staff on the wall caught their imagination and respect. In August 1914, twenty- three outdoor staff were recorded in the labour books; by 1917 there were just eight. This performance grew from a desire by the Heligan Estate to: “honour and commemorate not just the Lost Gardeners from the Heligan Estate but all the people and the families locally whose world was changed in August 1914” (WildWorks, Programme). Using field notes, snatched impressions, visceral responses from embodied memory, and subsequent access to the performance script to clarify my scribbled sentences, this paper aims to trace what has remained with me. This piece of creative remembering is influenced by, and inflected with, my thesis research into landscape processes of biography, affect, 95 Platform, Vol.

  • Mevagissey Parish Neighbourhood Development Plan
    Mevagissey Parish Neighbourhood Development Plan Picture Copyright Sarah Olson, New York, www.sarah-olson.com Plan for the Period 2017 - 2032 Issue 2.0 Mevagissey Neighbourhood Development Plan February 2018 Issue 2.0 February 2018 1 Introduction Those who know Mevagissey would describe it as the classic working Cornish fishing port which is active all year round. It stands alone, untouched and geographically distinct from nearby conurbations. The village church dates from the thirteenth century and the streets have a medieval layout. History has it that Mevagissey was a centre for smuggling in the eighteenth century, building fast cutters for the smugglers and the revenue men alike. The port has an inner harbour which dries out between tides and a deeper outer harbour. A large and growing number of fishing boats work from the harbour which is surrounded by a conservation area largely consisting of ancient fishermen's cottages, renovated fish processing buildings and the grander houses of one-time merchants. The harbour hosts a boat-builder and repair yard, an aquarium and a history museum. The permanent population of Mevagissey has fallen slightly over the last 200 years but since 1930, the buildings in the village have more than doubled. This can be accounted for by lower densities of family occupation, but more significantly to improved mobility in the latter 20th century giving rise to a demand for second homes and as a retirement destination. Greater mobility has, however, not greatly influenced the employment prospects either in Mevagissey or in Cornwall as a whole, so living standards among residents deny many of them the opportunity to aspire to home ownership within the village.
