🌟Last week we had the pleasure of training up a group of our new sponsors from Märraum Architects in Penryn!🌟
We were lucky enough to spot 2 seals and a harbour porpoise from Pendennis Point, Falmouth.

😌Wally has finally found a good place to rest 😌

⛵️After a few turned over boats we and the locals on the Isles of Scilly are happy Wally the Walrus has found a floating pontoon to rest on instead.

👏🏼Hopefully he continues to take advantage of the pontoon.
