LOOE COMMUNITY NEWS December 2017 - January 2018 105th Edition Published by Looe Development Trust for Looe and surrounding parishes crabb pot_Layout 1 21/05/2014 14:21 Page 1 NEWS FROM THE EAST LOOE TOWN TRUST All change at the helm of the East Looe Town Trust. At the October Trustees’ board meeting, John Warne CB stood down from the Chairmanship after seven years and Vice Chairman Phil Gibson became Chairman, with Michael Tolley becoming Vice Chairman. I would like to take this opportunity to thank John for all his work as Chairman and the direction he has set the Trust in. I am pleased to say that John will continue as a Trustee. My thanks also goes to retiring trustee Colin Cotton, Colin's knowledge and humour will be missed at our board meetings but his contribution to the trust over the last 10 years has been invaluable. Many thanks, Colin.

The Trust has pledged £2000 towards the purchase of six in total. These will be placed in key locations throughout the town. Locations are still to be confirmed, however with the two already in town and one at the Barbican and two proposed jointly by Looe Lions and Looe Pioneers, a great effort by all will result in 10 defibrillators in Looe. A grant was also given in conjunction with West Looe Town Trust to Looe Pioneers for the purchase of a new running kit. The running club has grown significantly over the last 12 months and the Trust wishes them every success in representing the town when attending races all over Cornwall and further afield. The Trust is also exploring the replacement or upgrading of CCTV on the seafront promenade areas. This is expected to be decided upon by the Trust in the New Year. This has come to the Trust attention due to behaviour issues and vandalism on the seafront on a regular basis. As Christmas approaches, the Trust’s maintenance staff are preparing for the festive lights and Christmas tree to be placed in the Rose Garden. Although writing this in November (it seems a little early!) I would like to thank the staff and Trustees for all their work over the past year and look forward to what we can achieve in 2018.
