NEWSWAVE - Adventure, Outdoors & October

In the latest episode, we join Nick Ratcliffe, Project Manager for Sustrans South, to explore the work of Sustrans, a UK charity dedicated to improving community health and happiness by making it easier for people to walk, wheel, and cycle; and Nick will share insights on the opportunities available here in St Austell and the surrounding areas.

We check in with Giovanni Cinque, Marketing & Campaigns Manager at Colostomy UK, ahead of Stoma Awareness Day. Here at CHAOS Radio, we’re taking this opportunity to raise awareness about the condition and address some of the stigmas that still exist in parts of society, and Giovanni joins us to help us explore these important issues.

As well as that, we take a trip to an exciting event that happened in our area last Saturday - the Porthpean Adventure Festival. The festival offered outdoor activities for everyone aged five and above, including high ropes, climbing walls, laser tag, archery, and more, with fifty per cent of the proceeds raised donated to Children’s Hospice South West.

If that wasn’t enough, with energy bills set to soar this winter, many households are feeling the pinch. Average annual costs are expected to rise by £149, leaving people searching for ways to cut expenses. To help, we’re joined by property expert Phil Spencer, who shares his top tips on reducing energy bills - from quick, affordable changes to longer-term investments.

Finally, we’ll head over to The Hall for Cornwall for a cultural extravaganza, Hope for Cornwall, designed to celebrate Cornwall’s creative spirit while discussing the vital role we can all play in addressing the housing crisis.
