Town Mayor announces his charity for 2020/21

Each year Falmouth's Town Mayor chooses a charity to support and this year following his election to serve for a second year in office Town Mayor Councillor Steve Eva called on local charities to nominate themselves for financial support. It was identified that this year would be particularly challenging for local charities to raise funds during the Covid19 Pandemic and as a result the Town Mayor decided nominations would help him to decide which local cause he could make a real difference to during this difficult time.

New Flag for Falmouth Cemetery

Local resident Gary Brooks-Adams and his wife Kim have been taking their daily lockdown exercise in Falmouth Cemetery which they have found very peaceful. During their walks they noticed that the flag being flown in the War Graves section was looking a bit tired and very kindly offered to donate a new flag. The Mayor, Councillor Steve Eva, met with Mr Brooks-Adams to hoist the new flag and to thank him and his wife for their kind and thoughtful donation.

Tribute to Dame Vera Lynn

The Mayor Councillor Steve Eva has paid tribute to Dame Vera Lynn who passed away today aged 103.

Councillor Eva said ‘As an ex-serviceman I am very sad to hear of the death of Dame Vera Lynn who held a special place in the hearts of all servicemen, past and present, young and old. I had the privilege to meet Dame Vera in 1977 whilst serving in the Royal Navy and her songs are as poignant now as they were during the 1940’s. May the Forces Sweetheart rest in peace’.
