How critical is cultural heritage in stimulating sustainable policies for future generations?

Here is my 2014 audio Christmas card. Not going into intricate detail of the year - just some thoughts. Happy Christmas / Nadelik Lowen

The church organ has been removed from St John's recently. Very sad that the church couldn't keep a lovely pipe instrument maintained. Here is a recording of a friend of mine, Steven Bowey (who still plays recitals around the Newbury area) playing the St John's Old Coulsdon organ circa 1988

Amanda Rule is leaving Cornwall Chamber of Commerce - and indeed Cornwall. Here is an ode to her leaving.

My interview with Danny Alexander on 24th April 2014 in Bodmin.

I posted a song yesterday in English - but felt it was too good not to do a Cornish language version.

Here is a song I wrote and recorded today. Bass and electric guitars, along with some backing vocals and shaker provided by Dave Miller. Enjoy.

I recorded this several years ago with my father talking about a variety of things about his life.

The PanCeltic Festival is being held this April in Derry in the north of Ireland. Cornwall has selected its entry for the song competition. Join the Aggie Boys as they bid to make it three wins for Cornwall in a row at the Celtic version of Eurovision.

I speak to Don Gardner who runs the Camborne Food Bank. He gives me a wake up call to how serious poverty is in Cornwall.

I spoke to Guy Lavis from Transport for London after he gave a presentation to Cornish businesses in November at the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce's big breakfast.
