Your new Hertz Car & Van Hire Outlet Leading Helston furniture store announces expansion plans JC Williams (Furnishers) Ltd has this week announced exciting explansion plans for next year. Their current showroom, which is situated at 10 Meneage Street, already has a wide selection of living, dining and bedroom furniture, home accessories, flooring, carpets and a made-to-measure soft furnishings department over three expansive floors, and now their store is about to get even bigger! Robert Williams, Managing Director, explains, “2015 is going to be a great year for J.C. Williams. As this will be our 60th anniversary of successful trading in Helston, what better way to celebrate than to take the store toward a bigger, brighter future?” He continues, “On hearing the news that Oliver & Son were closing their doors at the

end of November I felt it was a golden opportunity for us to capture some of their established custom in the locality as well as to take on some of their very experienced and respected staff.” J.C. Williams welcomes Clive Richards, Bridget Parker and Les Reynolds to the team, who all have a wealth of knowledge and experience in the trade between them. “We will be linking our two shops together and the planned expansion will enable us to display some of the key brands that Oliver & Son represented so successfully for many years, such as Vi-Spring, Dunlopillo, Parker Knoll and Cintique, as well as stocking a much wider choice of carpets, curtains and blinds.” Robert Williams adds, “To make room for this exciting expansion project, Joy

Williams Baby and Nursery Department will cease trading on 31st December 2014 in the next-door premises and we will be moving sideways to absorb this space. Opportunities like this don’t come along very often, so this is absolutely the right time. We look forward to becoming one of the largest home furnishers in the South West, promising quality while catering for all budgets, whether first-time buyers, families, retirees or secondhome owners. We are here for everyone.” J.C. Williams and the new team plan to have the new showroom up and running by mid-January 2015 and look forward to sharing their new beginnings with Helston and the wider community. “J.C. Williams already attracts customers from all over the South West, and we are just about to get bigger.”

Russian embassy honours World War Two veterans in Cornwall for their part in transporting crucial supplies to Russia At a ceremony at New County Hall in Truro, Russian Deputy Ambassador Alexander Kramarenko presented Ushakov medals to veterans from Cornwall who took part in World War Two Arctic Convoys which the Russian embassy says allowed Russian soldiers to defeat the Germans on the Eastern Front. Alexander Kramarenko was joined by Cornwall Council Chairman John Wood, the Lord-Lieutenant of Cornwall, Colonel Edward Bolitho OBE and representatives from the Armed Forces at the medal presentation ceremony. More than 3,000 men died during the maritime campaign that Winston Churchill was said to have called the "worst journey in the world". The Russian Embassy wrote to survivors in May 2012 that it intended to award them with the Medal of Ushakov as a symbol of the country's gratitude. On the 10 March 2014, President of the Russian Federation

Vladimir Putin signed a decree awarding the Ushakov Medal to the British veterans of the Arctic Convoys. Cornwall Council Chairman John Wood said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a great honour and privilege to be a part of such an important ceremony. The recognition and subsequent awards are long overdue. The passing of the years does not diminish the significance of the contribution made by these brave and determined veterans. This is recognised by the fact that the Russian Government is making these awards.

Without the Arctic convoys the outcome of the war could well have been very different. At last these unsung heroes, who played such an important part in the war effort as they took part in hellish Arctic convoy missions through the North Sea in winter, are being recognised for their immense contribution to the allies war effort.â&#x20AC;? The group are among 3,000 British veterans of the Arctic Convoys who will be presented with Ushakov medals.

Helston author bucks trend in book sales An author from Helston has seen sales of her book rocket despite the current trend for digital copies popular with devices such as the Kindle and Nook. Christina Webb, who was educated in Nansloe and Helston Schools and has lived in Helston for 28 years, says the statistics have taken her by surprise. “I wanted to make the book available to everyone and I know that, although eBooks are popular, there are still plenty of people who like to buy traditionally printed copies. I wasn’t prepared for just how many, though.” Christina has experienced a high volume of sales since her book was published on November 1st and is currently selling two print copies for every digital book sold, a rare phenomenon since the relatively recent introduction of eReaders. “It’s easy to see why readers would prefer eBooks as they can carry and store a lot of books in such a small

device but I’ve been told by a lot of my readers that they still enjoy reading physical books at home and many of my readers will be doing just that with mine. I’m still shocked at how many copies are being sent out each day but I love to have a book to display so am pleased that others still feel the same.” Christina’s book, “To Be Born”, is a modern tale set in the fictional town of Donovan. It is a double adventure that sees the protagonist, Abby, torn between her new found responsibilities, her love and an evil curse that has been brought about her family. It is published by Lyvit Publishing and both the print version and Kindle edition are available at Amazon priced at £7.99 and £2.56 respectively.

40,000 young musicians set to take part in world’s largest youth music festival Music for Youth (MFY) launches the Regional Festival Series 2015 giving 40,000 young musicians a chance to get their music heard. The Series, sponsored by the ABRSM, takes place between February and April 2015 with over 1,500 music groups performing in 50 festivals across the nation. The Series is open to groups of young musicians based in the UK, aged 21 and under, who are performing an eclectic range of music to any standard. The Regional Festivals are free to enter and offer young musicians a platform on which to perform anything from folk, world and roots to western classical and contemporary jazz through to urban and electronic music. The Cornwall Music Education Hub is working closely with Music for Youth to host a regional festival in Truro on Friday 7th March. Groups interested in participating in the festival should book via the Music For Youth website www.mfy.org.uk/regional by Monday 8th December. Local musician and director of the Cornwall Youth Orchestra, Tim Boulton, is co-ordinating the Cornwallbased festival.

Judith Webster, Chief Executive said: “We are pleased to launch our 2015 Regional Festival series, and look forward to celebrating the range and quality of musicmaking currently taking place both inside and outside of schools across the UK. Following ABRSM’s recent report on music making trends across the country Making Music, Teaching, Learning & Playing in the UK, we watch with interest to see how this bears out in our festivals. Supporters of participating musicians are invited to come along and get involved with their local Regional Festival so they can hear the unique mix of music being performed and see for themselves the great work happening in music education today.” The Cornwall Music Education Hub is a partnership of organisations, supported through funding from Arts Council England, who work together to promote high quality music education for children and young people. The partnership is led by Cornwall Learning , which is part of Cornwall Council. Further information about the work of the Cornwall Music Education Hub can be found at www.cornwallmusiceducationhub.org.

Storm damage repairs now completed on 56 schemes in coastal areas across Cornwall Following the storms which swept across Cornwall earlier this year, repairs commissioned by Cornwall Council have now been completed on 56 schemes in coastal areas. Cornwall experienced twelve major storms between December 2013 and March 2014, causing huge damage to coastal infrastructure in 245 locations, including the closure of the main rail line into Cornwall at Dawlish. All of Cornwall was affected in some way, including flooding of property and land at Wadebridge, Perranporth, Looe, St Ives, Bude, Portreath, Penzance, Fowey, Mevagissey and Penryn and damage to sea defences, beaches, piers, breakwaters, harbours and cliffs. A number of people were forced to temporarily leave their properties, and many businesses, including fishing and tourism related businesses, suffered con-

siderable financial losses. More than £9.5m of works to repair the coastal areas damaged by the storms have been carried out by the Council over the past few months. This has been funded primarily from the Environment Agency, with a small contribution coming from the Council’s budget. In addition to the funding for repairs to coastal areas the authority also received an additional £1.2m funding from the Department of Transport Small Ports fund and £10.7m from the Department of Transport for repairs to damaged highway infrastructure. In total the Council has received over £20m in Government funding in relation to last Winter’s storm damage. A significant amount of work took place in the aftermath of the storms to carry out immediate repairs. Permanent works have

now been carried out in these areas, with schemes ranging from £5,000 to £500,000. “Flooding is a real risk faced by residents and businesses across Cornwall” said Edwina Hannaford, the Council’s Cabinet Member for Environment, Heritage and Planning. “Many parts of Cornwall suffered enormous damage as a result of the floods which battered the county at the end of last year and the beginning of this year. It has taken time to carry out the repairs , with more work still to do in some areas. I would like to thank the communities which were affected for their continued support during these works. As well as works being carried out by the Council’s contractor CORMAC, the authority commissioned works through the Environment Agency’s external contractor BMM to ensure the

schemes were completed in time for the forthcoming winter. There are eleven sites remaining where repair works are still ongoing. These are Portreath, Hannafore - Looe, St Mawes sea wall, Trevone, Talland Bay, Constantine Bay, Gyllyngvase, Portwrinkle, Praa Sands, Wheal Dream and Newquay Towan. On these sites measures have been put in place where required to manage the risk of further damage whilst the works are completed. The last scheme to be completed is likely to be at Towan Beach in Newquay where the works are extensive and complex. This scheme is expected to be completed by the end of February 2015. The funding secured by the Council has also enabled repairs to be carried out at Mullion Harbour and Looe Harbour, both of which are privately owned.

Could a Better Mobile Phone Signal be on its way? Prospective Conservative MP, Derek Thomas has welcomed the news Culture Secretary Sajid Javid has launched a consultation to end poor mobile phone coverage. Derek, who has been campaigning to end the poor signal that blights mobile phone use throughout West Cornwall, said: “Parts of West Cornwall suffer from a particularly poor mobile phone service. Mobile phones are an essential tool for many of us now and it is time we got the service we pay for.” Derek continued: “I discussed this issue with Sajid when he visited West Cornwall in September. He clearly understood the issue and was robust about the need to find a solution. This consultation will help everyone have their say.” The Culture Secretary said so called ‘partial not-spots’ have coverage from some but not all of the four mobile networks - EE, O2, Three and Vodafone –

leaving some customers with no signal at all. Sajid Javid MP, said talks had been held with the mobile companies in recent months in an attempt to find a voluntary solution and this was expected to continue during the consultation process. He added: “I have spoken to Derek about this problem and he has highlighted to me the problem in some areas... where they have poor mobile phone coverage. Cornwall is not alone. It's a problem that blights over a fifth of the UK. "I am determined to ensure the UK has world-class mobile phone coverage. This consultation will allow us to hear the views of everyone involved including the telecoms sector, businesses and the public. A better mobile service for everyone in rural Cornwall will help deliver jobs and economic security.”
