Camborne Graffiti Project

At this weeks Town Council meeting I heard about a worthwhile graffiti project that is currently taking place in the Camborne area. PCSO's Mike Kearon and Becky Di Quirico have started the 'Together Against Graffiti Project.'

The aim of this project is to clean up unsightly graffiti, and the PCSO's aided by 25 young volunteers from Camborne, are doing exactly that. To date areas that have been cleaned are, the changing rooms on the Old School of Mines Rugby Ground (used by Storm Football Club) and a start has been made on the graffiti at the Elim Centre plus in the pipeline is graffit on Pengegon Bridge. This is a great project - giving youngsters pride in the area they live in - and we should all be supportive of ideas such as these, especially when youngsters are engaged in this way.

I understand that the project organisers are looking to erect a graffiti 'Free Wall' at Tuckingmill Valley Park in the skateboard area. To assist with the finance of this they are looking to the Town Council for support, and of course to the local councillors. We should all be voting for this one by contacting our local councillors to make sure they too are on board with the project. Your local councillors can be contacted here.
