"Underbelly of St Ives where not everything is as rose-tinted as it seems"
"Heartbreakingly the place with the highest percentage of children living in poverty in Cornwall is in the same area where property prices are among the highest and local employment opportunities are difficult, making it a complicated cycle... fortunately, rather than trying to deny that, there is one place doing everything in its power to change it and give the youths of St Ives a future they can depend on."

It has been a privilege welcoming Cornwall's young musical talent to the Tower Music Project for several nights of assessed performances with Truro College. This follows our funding from Tesco Bags of Help, which enabled us to expand our live sound and lighting equipment. Everyone who performed was incredible, and we look forward to working with the Truro and Penwith College music departments again in the future.
