Dear Friends of Par Beach member
We are looking for people to get involved as volunteers and help us record the wildlife found on the beach and rocky promontories of Par (think rock pooling for adults).
We aim to create a team of volunteers to help us carry out surveys in the future.
To help us train you, Cornwall Wildlife Trust are running a free training event on Spit Beach near Par on Saturday 21st May.
If you are interested in getting involved, please email contact@parbeach.com for more information. It would be great to get more members actively involved so if you are interested but can’t make the training day on 21st, do get in touch anyway.
Exciting news about our Par Time and Tide Bell making a visit to Par in advance of the installation later in the Summer.
It will firstly be visiting Tywardreath School on Thursday and Friday the 3rd and 4th of March so that the children, staff and parents can have a good look and also get to play the Bell.
It is so important for the children to get some knowledge of Rising Sea Levels and Global Warming, as their age group and that of their children are likely to be the first generations to be really affected by this issue.
The Bell will then be on display in Cornubia on Saturday 5th of March where everybody is welcome to visit and have a look. We hope to invite the media along on that day as well to gain as much publicity as possible, and also encourage some donations, as we are getting close but are not quite there yet with our funding.
The Bell will then stay in Cornubia on Sunday 6th March and be part of the Spring Fair.
Please take this opportunity to have a look at this wonderful project, and remember that Par is the only chosen site in Cornwall for a Time and Tide Bell.
