Kehillat Kernow Grand Summer Picnic on 30th,July 2023.

Either on the beach or in a garden in Cornwall we always enjoy enthusiastic conversations and stunning views. This year it was the turn of Trengwainton Garden, a beautiful National Trust property near Penzance. Though there wasn’t glorious sunshine at the end of July, many of us from near and far came together to share a picnic and relaxing walk. What could be better!

Antiques Roadshow-Kehillat Kernow Scroll.

Kehillat Kernow Scroll guest of honour in the Antiques Roadshow will be on BBC1- Sunday, 11 June, 8:00 p.m.

In September last year, the Antiques Roadshow came to the Eden Project in Cornwall. We were invited to take something or things to show there. When we told the producers about our ancient Falmouth Scroll, they asked us to take this. Our little Scroll was treated like a VIP and we were all punch drunk with pride. The resulting footage from the day was edited down to enough material for two programmes and our Scroll will star in the second one to be broadcast.
