There are worries that new by-laws prevent some fishermen in Cornwall from earning their living. The new laws were designed to protect shellfish populations, especially crabs and lobsters. At the moment, there are far fewer shellfish to be found in the sea around Cornwall because they are being eaten by huge numbers of octopus that have been attracted here by our warming coastal waters. So, boats longer than 12m no longer have permission to lay shellfish pots inshore. Some fishermen, such as Sam Jago, say that this is not fair. Although his boat is longer than 12 meters, it’s old, and and cannot catch as many shellfish as modern boats. The Cornwall Inshore Fisheries Authority said that it was working with fishermen to find a solution suitable for all sizes of fishing vessels.

Translation 2/3 Members of Launceston and Warleggan Young Farmers’ groups have raised more than £8000 for the charity Penhaligon’s friends which supports bereaved children. During National Young Farmers’ Week, the groups raised money through many different events such as sheep shearing, cooking big breakfasts, collecting Christmas trees, selling dung and organising bingo nights. The charity supports more than 1,000 bereaved children every year, and its chief executive, Julie Parker, said that the money would be used to help families by funding local groups and organising memory days. She said, "Not only are they raising money, but they are also helping to raise awareness of our services, enabling more families to know about the support available should they need it.

Translation 3/3 The Penlee House Gallery in Penzance has welcomed an important collection of Newlyn School paintings depicting life in Cornwall’s fishing and farming communities. The paintings are owned by the Bowerman Collection charitable trust, based in West Sussex, which loans its artworks to galleries and museums throughout the country. This exhibition includes forty paintings created by Newlyn School artists between 1880 and 1940. And amongst them, works by Stanhope and Elizabeth Forbes, Walter Langley and Dame Laura Knight will be on show. You can see the exhibition in Penzance until January 9th before it begins a two-year national tour. And that’s all from me for this week. Until next time!
