In April the Trust submitted an application for the 2014 round of the Coastal Community Fund. Our application is for £1.6 million and is for the refurbishment of the 1960's building currently housing the crustacean operation of Mr. Hawkins on East Quay.

We have an amazing team for this application comprising:

• Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios, winners not only of the prestigious Stirling Prize but, in 2013, the Prime Minister’s Better Building Award – and more RIBA awards than any other practice.
• Burges Salmon LLP, a leading law firm advising us on State Aid.
• Trevor Humphries Associates, quantity surveying and project management whose portfolio includes Harvey’s Foundry Trust,Porthcurno Telegraph Museum and King Edward Mine.
• Spalding Associates, specialists in ecological surveys.
• Steven Levrant Heritage Architecture Ltd,specialists in heritage and conservation issues and an expert on Hayle Harbour.
• And many local volunteers with professional skills.
