THE joint committee of the Bodmin fireworks event again had a very successful and well attended firework display in the Priory Park last November 5.

As with other years, the presentation evening on February 25 was extremely appreciated and after all costs have been paid and a reserve for next year’s event retained, the joint committee handed out £8,500 to 48 child and youth based organisations, including groups from St Breward and St Tudy.

The presentation took place in the club house of Bodmin Town Football Club where mayor Cllr Sarah Kinsman handed out the cheques.

Chairman of the joint committee, Peter Old, welcomed everybody and invited them all to attend this year’s display which again will be on November 5.
