Working with the Princes Regeneration Trust & Carrek

Cornish Lime were pleased to be able to provide lime training at The Old Duchy Palace in Lostwithiel with the support of the Princes Regeneration Trust and Carrek Historic Building Conservation. The events ran on the 2nd and 9th November and were open to anyone who would like to attend. The two days training were fantastically successful and we had some great feedback. Special thanks to the guys from the Princes Regeneration Trust who helped to organise these days.
