TRANSLATION: The planters have been created at Bodmin Community Hospital's garden so they can be accessible by people in wheelchairs. The planting area was designed and made by students from Bodmin College. The materials were donated by local businesses. Students were provided with materials, including wood and compost. They were donated by RGB Building Supplies and Bond Timber. Yaz Andrews, from Bodmin Community Hospital, said the new planters were "absolutely fantastic"."It's wonderful that as a community we have come together to create these areas for patients to enjoy," she said.
PRESENTER James: Our next story continues the gardening theme. The Eden Project says its live streaming lessons have reached 75,000 schoolchildren across the world. Listen out for the Cornish for the Eden Project, An Edenva, the United States, Statys Unys, and Japan, Nihon.

TRANSLATION According to its schools’ team, they had broadcast to students in the UK, Canada, USA, Japan, Portugal and the Netherlands. They said lessons were streamed live from the rainforest biome, educating pupils on the tropics and important plants. Robbie Kirkman, education team lead, said it was "amazing to see how well received" the lessons were. "They [live streaming lessons] provide us with an opportunity to fulfil Eden's mission by engaging with different audiences, connecting them to one another and bringing them closer to the living world," he said. Mr Kirkman said "to reach more than 75,000 students, many of whom may not have had the chance to visit the Eden Project before, is truly heartening.
PRESENTER James: Our final story concerns the attempt by owners of a derelict hotel overlooking a popular Cornish beach to once again convert the building. Listen out for the Cornish for hotel, ostel, restaurant, bosti, and café, koffiji

TRANSLATION PBHH Ltd, which owns the building, known as the Pink Hotel above Pendower Beach, has submitted a new planning application to Cornwall Council. The original proposal for a hotel, restaurant, and 25 residential flats, had more than 500 objections. The revised design features 23 holiday-let suites, a public café and restaurant, a shop, and on-site staff accommodation. According to the owners, the hotel aims to attract year-round visitors, boosting the local economy. The regeneration requires about £1m of stabilisation work to protect road access to Pendower Beach and to guard against coastal erosion. A decision on the plans is anticipated in early summer.That’s all from me, have a good week.
