On St Piran’s Day we come together to celebrate Cornwall. The sea of black and white of St Piran’s flags everywhere makes me very proud to be Cornish.
We all wave our flags enthusiastically at Perantide and that is wonderful, but what about the rest of the year? Do you stand up for Cornwall all year round? Be proud of Cornwall!
We do have much to celebrate already in 2020. Mark Jenkin winning the BAFTA for his film Bait, flying the flag for Cornwall among international film stars! Congratulations! If you haven’t seen the film make a point of going.
Kan rag Kernow Yowynk at Kresen Kernow, where Camborne schools performed fantastic songs about Cornish astronomer John Couch Adams, which they had composed themselves working with professional writers and musicians, using Kernewek as well as English. Flying the flag for Cornwall!
The Rowan Tree on BBC Spotlight launching their album Kolar’s Gold highlighting stories of long forgotten Cornish miners in India. Flying the flag for Cornwall!
It is great to see so many celebrating Cornwall’s special day, and not just in Cornwall either, but in the diaspora too. More and more each year! Make sure Cornwall’s distinctiveness, culture and our language play a part in your lives. In these uncertain days when that is under threat, from many sides, it is more important than ever to shout for Cornwall. Let us wave St Piran’s flag whenever we can, at every opportunity. Not just on 5th March! Be proud of Cornwall! Be proud to be Cornish!
