One of the best pump tracks for cyclists in the South West is to be officially opened in Falmouth’s Trescobeas Park by Councillor David Saunby at 11am on Saturday 18 June 2016.
A pump track is a looped trail of smooth dirt mounds for cycling around, at speed, without pedalling. The name comes from the pumping motion used by the cyclist’s upper and lower body when riding around the tracks, which are used for competitive time trials.

Town Mayor Councillor Grenville Chappel has chosen Falmouth Stroke Club to be his charity for his term in office and he has met with Treasurer Brenda Wilkes and Chairman Graham Wilkes for his first formal engagement in the Mayors Parlour.

The Mayor stated ‘I decided upon Falmouth Stroke Club as my charity as so many people are affected by strokes and most importantly Falmouth Stroke Club is a local charity that provides a fantastic support network to the local community’.

Behind Falmouth's parish church (in the centre of town) is a grassy open space climbing the hill to Wodehouse Terrace. The interesting history of this patch of ground is lost to many of Falmouth's residents, who often assume the site has always been used for dog-walking or view-taking. But a closer look reveals a scattering of gravestones, leant against walls or covered with ivy. These relics are a clue to the site's actual history; the entire hillside here is a disused graveyard, opened in 1664 and closed in the 1850s because the ground was literally overfilled with the dead.

Following the decision at the last meeting of the Cabinet to defer the item on the Ships and Castles leisure centre, Adam Paynter, the Council’s Cabinet Member for Resources, asked officers to re-examine the condition of the building to assess the scale of the works required to address the immediate health and safety issues.
