Thanks to #Padstow businesses who spent time with Beach Guardian and Final Straw Cornwall today The vast majority are now using paper straws. Just a handful with biodegradable plastic straws. This definitely doesn’t happen in sea water, it is too cold. We'll help the switch to paper!

Congratulations to Nick Evans and everyone involved in our wonderful Stein's Cookery Schl for the gold award won at last night’s CornwallTourismAwds for learning experience of the year. I do think it’s a special experience simply because all our students tell me so.
