Treneere play area

After a piece of play equipment had to be removed due to being unsafe from the Colinsey Road play area on Treneere, we are delighted that a new piece of equipment has been funded and installed. This will give local residents somewhere to enjoy the outside spaces.

Tackling anti-social behaviour

We are committed to tackling anti-social behaviour. Our Housing and Anti-Social Behaviour teams recently worked at a scheme in Newquay to carry out additional patrols and to work with local residents to let them know how to report any issues they were experiencing. As a result of this work the local authority were able to gain a partial order closure at an address, helping to tackle anti-social behaviour. 

We have also recently carried out visits to estates in Bodmin including with the local police to speak to residents to encourage reporting anti-social behaviour. We also spoke to residents about parking, bins, and gave advice on reporting repairs.

Truro litter pick

We recently organised a litter pick at Footes Fields and Chy Barham in Truro to help keep the area tidy. With volunteers from our Housing, Lettings and Community teams as well as local residents including children, great progress was made.

Christmas hampers

LiveWest volunteers including Community Connector Lorna Turnbull recently volunteered at the Helston and The Lizard Foodbank helping with their Christmas Hampers Appeal, helping to make a huge difference to families. Along with a small army of other volunteers we packed 104 boxes which will provide a basics of a meal plus some festive treats for over 400 people in the area this Christmas. The boxes ranged from food for single households up to families of seven and included items such as stuffing mix, gravy mix, jars of pickles, soft drinks, custard, Christmas cake, puddings, mince pies, boxes of biscuits, savoury biscuits, crisps and chocolates.
