CWA are looking for volunteer compost mentors in the Newquay area to take part in our compost mentors project. The scheme is funded by the Big Lottery Fund as part of its Local Food program, and aims to encourage more people to compost their food and garden waste at home, and to grow their own food.

CWA offers free training and support to local people to become volunteers who encourage and help members of their community to compost.

Newquay residents are invited to attend a free compost mentor training workshop.  All participants will be provided with a free compost bin and caddy.  After attending the workshop trainees will begin to mentor their friends, family, colleagues or neighbours. The first two households mentored by each volunteer also receive free compost bins and caddies.

The workshop will be held in Newquay on Thursday 4th November (7pm-9:30pm), so sign up now! Places are booked on a first come, first served basis.

If you are from the Newquay area and would like to get involved, please contact CWA on 01209 210 883. You can also email  CWA (Aktiviere JavaScript, um die Email-Adresse zu sehen) or  more information
