Success as Kernewek is awarded additional protection under the European charter of minority languages. Now we need the government to talk the talk and walk the walk. Without adequate funding this is but words on a piece of paper!

After three days without power and one without water, my thoughts are going to the families that are still in the cold. We've seen heartwarming displays of solidarity in #Penryn where people have shared homes, lent supplies and taken care of vulnerable neighbours.
