What a fantastic day we spent last Wednesday (17th May 2023) at Cabilla for the Tevi end of Project Celebration. The weather was glorious and we had a packed day full of activity and inspiring speakers. The Cabilla team provided inspiring woodland walks through the ancient temperate rainforest on their land whilst Cornwall Wildlife Trust and Plant One were able to provide hands on activities to enable everyone to get outside, get active and enjoy the surroundings.

Thank you to the 100+ participants that helped make the celebration special. One thing we have been extremely proud of throughout Tevi is the community of likeminded organisations that we have supported each other in the transition to more sustainable ways of living and working.
