RESIDENT couple Jim and Val Cowen have won this year's Camelford Rotary Club 'Citizen of the Year Award' for their devoted support over many years to charity, The Merlin Project. They are a very caring couple and work hard, week in and week out, to make their popular jams and chutneys. These products are on sale daily outside their home in Camelford and around the local area at various social events, with the proceeds going towards The Merlin Project. The Merlin Project's Loraine Long said: "We are amazed at the hard work and dedication which Jim and Val have given over the years, and 'thank you' does not seem enough."
