National Tree Week

26 November - 7 December 2008

National Tree Week is a great chance for communities to do something positive for their local treescape. Each year, Tree Council member organisations such as voluntary bodies and local authorities, up to 200 schools and community groups, 8,000 Tree Wardens and many others, support the initiative by setting up fun, worthwhile and accessible events, inspiring upward of a quarter of a million people to get their hands dirty and together plant around million trees.

Leap sponsors ‘Most Inspirational Film 2008’ at this year’s Cornwall Film Festival.

On Saturday, the Sandsifter hosted Cornwall Film Festival's 'BOARDSHORTS' which was presented by film critic Mark Kermode and Leap was one of their main sponsors!
Most Inspirational film 08 went to The Life of Ply by Ocean Motion Pictures and Leap supported them by presenting a cheque for £250 !
The event showcased short films and slideshows from local and international talent, documenting the wonderful world of wave riding in all its forms.
This year the film festival trebled the capacity of the venue to include a marquee to accommodate the expanding audience.
The quality of the entries this year were outstanding, with entries from the Uk’s very best film makers and Leap was very proud to be a part of it!
