This year’s Crantock Bale Push – held on September 8 – was a great success! The village was full of people of all ages either taking part in Cornwall’s craziest fund-raiser or supporters cheering on competitors in each and every race.

We would like to say a huge thank you everyone who supported our event last night.

This year could be a very special year for the Bale Push as we hope to reach the magical figure of £100,000 raised and donated to local charities and organisations—we are at present on £92,000! This would not have been possible with the generous support from our advertisers, sponsors, participants and the people of Crantock.

As many of you will know we always support Cornish based charities, organisations and individuals. We feel it is important that all as the money is raised in Cornwall it should made available to help Cornish people. As there are so many good causes to support it is always difficult to make a final decision and this year has been no exception!

The final event in the Bale Push calendar is our Presentation Evening generously hosted as always by Sally and Andy Pickles at The Bowgie Inn. It is the time we celebrate the hard work of all those involved in this fundraising event and present cheques to our chosen charities and organisations.
