The St Minver Community Hub CIO is delighted to announce the award of a Shared Prosperity Fund grant of £600,000. This brings the total funds raised and pledged to some £900,000 enabling the construction of the new Community Hub Building in Trewint Playing Fields to commence early next year and to be in use by the end of 2024. This is a tremendous milestone for the project that was envisaged over 10 years ago and for which fund raising has been underway for 5 years.
The recreation ground at Trewint was bequeathed to the Parish in the 1950’s. Since then it has been home to St Minver Football Club. For the last 30 years it has also been home for the St Minver Scouts and Guides, and the pre-school along with the play area that was refurbished with a grant from Cornwall Council in 2002. Lowlands Parish Council maintain the site along with the public toilets. Each group has grown over the years and maintained their own buildings, but despite the best efforts of all those involved, with the exception of the pre-school which is a new, more recent build, the cost of on- going repairs is increasing and beyond the fund raising that each group can achieve.
