NEWSWAVE

Join our reporter Tom Howe for NEWSWAVE, your weekly rundown of the top stories happening across St Austell and surrounding areas.

In the latest episode, we join Zara Shoesmith out and about across Cornwall for the first part of our review of the People in Mind Mental Health Roadshow — a series of conversations that shine a light on mental health support and lived experience.

We check in with Cheryl Gordon for a special interview with singer-songwriter Beth — better known online as Voice From The Wild. Beth talks us through her musical journey and how she built a fanbase through TikTok.

As well as that, we celebrate a major milestone for Young and Talented Cornwall — a brilliant organisation that’s just marked 20 years of empowering the Duchy’s next generation of artists, athletes, scientists, and more. Meah Howlett is joined by Programme Coordinator Sarah Waller and award recipient Isla to reflect on the impact of the fund.

Finally, we meet two local men - John and Dave - who are cycling over 200 miles on a tandem bike in the Ride for Precious Lives 2025, raising funds for Children’s Hospice South West in memory of John’s twin sons, Reuben and Bryn.
