A really big crane came in earlier. This "little" one will be leaving when the tide comes in.

02/09/2024

To support the ongoing building works for the new Isles of Scilly Integrated Health and Social Care Facility, an extra 120 tonne crane is due to arrive on St Mary’s on Tuesday 3 September. Tide dependent, the crane will be offloaded at Rechabite slipway at around 8am.

Once the offload is complete, the crane will be moved to Circus Field next to St Mary’s Community Hospital by road. The route from the slipway is as follows:

> across Lower Strand
> up Well Cross
> left turn onto Church Street
> continue onto Church Road
> right turn onto King Edward’s Road
> arrive at Circus Field

The route is also shown on the map, highlighted in blue.

The offloading and moving of the crane is expected to take 1.5 to 2 hours. Police and Highways are aware of the move and will be on hand to help.

We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause and hope you will continue to work with us to support this major investment in health and social care on the Isles of Scilly.

So today I retire from The Makery, where has that 5 years gone?!
I know that I am leaving my lovely shop in safe hands, Emma Humphries Popplestone Studio is bubbling with fabulous new ideas, and Fiona will be on hand to cherish my precious wool.
Thank you to all the crafty customers who have made the last 5 years such fun, I will miss you all XX

The Isles of Scilly have a 'Men's Shed' thanks to founder Simon Nicholls. The group has helped reduce isolation, boost mental health and has made the most of people's skills to build things for the community 🔨

They've been nominated as a Community Group finalist for the Awards. Listen about the project here ➡️ https://bbc.in/4dLHGEd

The islands' new (and also old) MP, Liberal Democrat Andrew George.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

It is an honour to be elected Member of Parliament for this wonderful constituency.

It won’t be easy to restore this country, but the work begins now.
