Grand Opening - Perranuthnoe Church Room

All residents are invited to the

Grand Opening

of the newly refurbished

Perranuthnoe Church Room

Saturday 29th January 11am

The ribbon will be cut at 11am then expect tea, coffee or a glass of wine, light nibbles and a short presentation followed by time to look around and chat with others about future activities. The room will remain open until 4pm for any afternoon visitors.

This building is now available for use by any member of the community, regardless of their faith. We hope this will be a whole village community event. Everyone is welcome.

Project Aims
  1. To open up the building for use by the wider community
  2. To make the building accessible to all as far as is reasonably practicable.
  3. To make best use of the space available
What’s New?

The main room is now fully damp-proofed and re-decorated with a new floor, a fitted hearing loop, extra electrical sockets, built-in lockable cupboards and spaces in which to stow the folding-furniture. The kitchen has been extended and now has a new cooker, extractor fan, extra electrical sockets, a stable-door fire-escape and a small serving hatch. We have use of a folding ramp to assist wheel-chair users into the main room and we plan to locate one or two sturdy arm chairs close to the WC entrance. The WC is one large cubicle fitted with a disability alarm, extra grab-rails, toddler seat and baby-changing facilities. Special community noticeboards are being ordered for inside and out to avoid posters blocking the light from the windows. A separate store has been built for bulky, outdoor furniture, freeing up activity space within the building. To hear more about activities, please come along to the Grand Opening!

Room Fees

£6 per hour
£12.50 half a day
£25 whole day

Wanted For Recycling

We are in dire need of packaging for the wool sales, anything from padded envelopes, card or strong envelopes, corrugated cardboard, bubble wrap, brown paper, plastic mailing bags in fact any thing which could be re-used to send out our wool orders.  This will be an on-going request and if people can save for us and then drop the used packaging etc into the shop that would be great.  I hate to buy new stuff when I could be recycling.

Also if anybody has a video recorder or videos they don't want, I can recycle these over to my daughter Emma in France.

Parish Council And Planning

Perranuthnoe does not seem to have a representative on the parish council anymore so anyone interested in any planning notices is advised to visit St Clare.

Apparently one of the current plans is to knock down 4 Greeb Way and rebuild.

This will be for the foreseeable future as the next parish council elections due in 2011, have been postponed until 2013, to take in to account changes within Cornwall Council. That means that nearly a third of our current parish councillors are in place, unelected, for at least two and half years. Our present parish council seems to have made little attempt to make public who the new councillors are where as most other parish councils at least put a notice in the local papers stating who have been elected or seconded.

What with parish councils likely to be getting new powers under the governments ' big society' including massive changes to how planning permissions are granted, this village will have no proper say in what happens so it is up to all of us to try and keep an eye on things and if necessary make our voice heard and our opinions count.

Warning - Check You Receipts - Cash Back Scam

It has come to my attention that there is a very nasty scam going around. Apparetnly cashiers are adding cash back to purchases that people have not asked for. They then give the cash back to a friend who is in the queue behind you!

The scam involves amounts from £20 - £40 but I guess it can involve any amount, depending on what the cashiers feels he/she can get away with. So far Sainsburys have had the most incidents of this as they are one of the largest retailers but it is certainly not limited to them. This scam can be done anywhere at any store when paying by debit or credit card so please, please check your reciepts!

Stay safe everyone.
