The lovely Castle Beach Cafe team are welcoming people on Christmas Day again - such a lovely thing to do ✨

Pop down for a hot chocolate and some festive cheer ☕️🎄

Just a reminder that we will be open on Christmas Day from 9am-1pm for hot drinks and cakes, as we have done for the past 3 years 🥰
We particularly welcome those that may be on their own or find this day difficult - it’s a lovely warm atmosphere with music and a community feel.
Please let us know if you are struggling financially - we have free cups of tea and mince pies for those that want to join in but perhaps can’t afford to.
We can’t wait to see you all 🥰🎄

We loved chatting to ceramics artist Amelia Fulton, who creates a delightful array of pieces from her garden studio here in Falmouth.

Amelia could always be found with a paintbrush or pencil in-hand as a child, but it was pottery that came to her later on - and she hasn't looked back since!

Today, she runs workshops for people in the community who would like to get their hands stuck into the clay to make their own unique pieces to take home. Plus you might just spot her at one or two Cornish makers markets this festive season!

Read all about Amelia here, or see her article in your winter Falmouth Life mag! https://www.life-media.co.uk/news/cornish-clay

Sometimes, in this job, you come across a gem of a person, taking a life-altering event and using it to make a positive difference.

Ruth Hitchcock is one of those people. She has been running 'Daily Dip 4 Dave' since her husband Dave's diagnosis of incurable Neuroendocrine cancer in 2023.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Ruth for your winter Falmouth Life magazine. She told us all about her daily challenge, how she's built a strong community across the country, and how her nationwide event - National Daily Dip for Dave - took off at Gylly Beach in October.

Have you ever wondered why we associate certain foods, animals and plants with Christmas?

Did you know mince pies were once oblong-shaped pies covered with virtually inedible pastry and filled with meat? Or that holly was thought to possess healing powers? Or that before the popular pantomimes came the Mummers' Plays?

We take a fascinating look at the origins of some of the winter symbols we hold dear to us today: https://www.life-media.co.uk/news/winter-symbols

Festive Weekend update! ❄️

FALMOUTH'S FESTIVE WEEKEND UPDATE

The Festive Weekend will still be going ahead this Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th December. With high winds forecast, we’ll be activating our wet weather contingency plan meaning thanks to the hard work of the volunteers and partners, the event will continue safely in a warm, welcoming and fully festive format.

A number of attractions will move indoors to the Princess Pavilion, including the artificial ice rink, giant snow globe, live festive music, and Santa’s Grotto. The venue will be transformed into a magical indoor winter playground for all ages to enjoy!

Many activities are still taking place throughout the town too, including the festive land train, snow machines on Church Street, and the High Street Christmas market.

The Christmas market marquee organised by Discovery Market and previously planned for Events Square will now combine with the Falmouth Market On The Moor creating an expanded festive marketplace!

Don't forget, it's also free parking in all Cornwall Council car parks on Saturday 6th December, so make sure you pop into town to shop local and support Falmouth's businesses!

Today, young men in Cornwall will celebrate their achievements at A Band of Brothers Cornwall's 'Homecoming Ceremony', after completing a three-month Rites of Passage programme, designed to support men aged 18-25 who are currently in, or at risk of entering, the criminal justice system.
