Accounts Year Ended 31st March 2025

Each year the smaller authority’s Annual Governance and Accountability Return (AGAR) needs to be reviewed by an external auditor appointed by Smaller Authorities’ Audit Appointments Ltd.  The unaudited AGAR has been published with this notice. As it has yet to be reviewed by the appointed auditor, it is subject to change as a result of that review.

Any person interested has the right to inspect and make copies of the accounting records for the financial year to which the audit relates and all books, deeds, contracts, bills, vouchers, receipts and other documents relating to those records must be made available for inspection by any person interested. For year ended 31st March 2025, these documents will be available on reasonable notice by application.

Following the local elections on May 1st, Camborne Town Councillors were invited to attend the welcome and induction meeting in the Passmore Edwards Building Council Chamber on Wednesday 6th May. Councillors signed their Declaration of Acceptance of Office and were given documents to provide guidance and support in their new role, following which, Council officers and management provided updates on their areas of work and ongoing projects.

On Tuesday 5th May, HRH Princess Royal made an official visit to South Crofty tin mine to re-open New Cook’s Kitchen Shaft with the unveiling of a plaque. The Princess Royal was shown around different areas of the operation including the workshop, the water treatment plant, the winder house and the underground mine, which included travelling via the mine shaft cage. Following this, the Princess Royal met Cornish Metals staff at a reception event, which featured local dignitaries and representatives including 2 members of our Engagement Team, representing the Mayor, who was required to attend his Cornwall Council induction that day.

Many thanks to Cornish Metals for their official photos and for more coverage and photos from the Royal visit, head to their Facebook page.

Trevithick Day 2025 was as spectacular as ever!

The streets were packed with over 20,000 visitors, the air was filled with steam, dancers weaved their merry way through town, the ‘Puffing Devil’ thundered down Basset Street and the gleaming steam engines paraded in line. While the Trevithick Day Committee manage the day’s entertainment, our Engagement Team staff manage the road closures and event safety and our Communications Manager roams the streets to provide a flavour of the day’s activities across our social media alongside a freelance photographer who is contracted to document this magical day in Camborne.

Our official photo album of Trevithick Day 2025 containing over 230 images of the event is now on Facebook here plus we’ve posted are over a dozen videos and livestreams from the event on our Facebook page, including a video of the ‘Puffing Devil’ and a Mr Darcy lookalike that has since gone viral with over 100,000 views and counting from all across the globe! https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1AWbxFJ2E9/

Many thanks to Paul of PR4Photos for all the fabulous images of Trevithick Day 2025.
