Hello!

The TR14ers have been awarded Royal Patronage. We are delighted!

'Camborne’s’ own youth led community dance troupe the TR14ers are delighted to announce that HRH The Duchess of Gloucester has agreed to be their Royal Patron. HRH was approached to become the troupes’ Patron following her visit to Camborne in June to watch a showcase Dance Workshop performed by 150 members of the TR14ers aged from 11 to 18 years.

“The young people are thrilled and honoured by this wonderful acknowledgement. Receiving HRH’s Royal Patronage shows the children how special they are and reinforces their self esteem and self respect, they are proud to bring this recognition to their home town, Camborne” said the troupes’ Chairman Sgt David Aynsley.

The young people regularly meet to choreograph new routines and they hold dance Workshops during the school holidays at The Corn Exchange in Camborne. “The TR14ers have come so far over the past 2 years and I am immensely proud to be associated with this project” said Mr. Tim Vigus who provides the Corn Exchange’s facilities to the troupe.

An overview of the TR14ers objectives, a pictorial album of their achievements and a brief history about the troupe can be found on their web site. The members are actively encouraged to lead a healthy lifestyle, are discouraged from using alcohol, tobacco or drugs and to strive to be socially aware and active citizens.

 The Tr14ers are currently rehearsing in preparation for their forth coming performances at the turning on of the Christmas Lights on December 1^st and at the Camborne Christmas Festivities in the square on 20^th December' (press release)
