Thanks to you
In our regular "thank you" feature we pay tribute to a selection of members and supporters who have found a variety of ways to help further the Trust's conservation aims. We hope you find these ideas and achievements inspirational.
Wildlife Guardians
We are delighted to welcome three new supporters aboard. Cornwall Paper Company has been recycling Cornwall's waste for 28 years and is hoping that more and more of us will be catching the recycling habit. Hawkins Motors, a family business well known to many as Cornwall's main dealer for Peugeot and Citroen, has been in existence for 70 years. Hawkins has sponsored the Trust's annual Art in the Wild, organised by Peter King, for several years. A keen walker and sailor, John Hawkins Snr recognises the importance of looking after Cornwall's natural environment on land and offshore. The Cornwall Wildlife Trust is grateful for the support that Hawkins Motors has given us.

A new development for Wildlife Guardians is the first comprehensive school to join as a corporate supporter. Truro's Richard Lander School is a highly successful community and technological college, with 1,166 pupils. Amongst other initiatives, it runs a popular environmental club.

Watson Marlow elected to have a fungus foray as its special event for staff and their families. Fungus specialist Barry Candy led a very enjoyable walk around Pendarves Wood, a Trust nature reserve. Many different varieties of fungi were found, especially by the younger members of the group. 		These were identified with unerring precision by Barry, who preferred to speak in Latin butunder pressure gave us some more memorable names such as the deceiver, the blusher and sulphur tuft. The weather remained very pleasant and we were able to enjoy hot pasties and cakes in a clearing made for charcoal burning.
