Happy Social Prescribing Day 2026! 🌿✨

We are so grateful here in Cornwall to have such an amazing Social Prescribing Service. This dedication to helping people find local support is changing lives every single day.

Today is all about celebrating the fantastic groups and services that make the China Clay area and the rest of Cornwall so special. From our vibrant community hubs to the local gardening clubs, choir groups, exercise groups, art and crafts, and support circles, you are the heartbeat of our villages. 🌍🏡

By connecting people to these local treasures, the Social Prescribing Service is building a stronger, happier, and more resilient Cornwall. Huge thanks to everyone involved in making our community a place where no one has to face challenges alone!

👟 Roche Social Walk: This Friday!

Don’t forget that the next led social walk in Roche is taking place tomorrow Friday, 27th February! It’s a fantastic opportunity to get some fresh air and meet others in the community.

The Details:

Meet-up: 12:00 PM start outside the front of the Clays Practice (GP surgery).

The Route: The walk will be on paved surfaces with a few road crossings. It is step-free, with the exception of a couple of curbs—perfect for a steady stroll.

Social Finish: The walk will conclude at The Rock Inn, where the walk leader will provide everyone with a non-alcoholic drink so the socialising can continue! ☕🥤

Parking Information:
🚗 If you are driving, please use the free parking available in the village:

The Rock Inn: There is a large free car park for patrons at the pub, located on Fore Street (directly opposite the path to Roche Rock).

Important Notice: Please do not park at the GP surgery, as their parking is strictly reserved for patients only.

🐾 Four-legged friends:
Well-behaved dogs on leads are more than welcome to join! Please just be mindful that some fellow walkers may not be dog lovers.

The organiser is really looking forward to meeting everyone! If you have any questions before Friday, please feel free to send a message to:
