A VETERAN’S retreat near St Columb Major is opening its doors to the community for a special event.

Kamp Menalhyl is organising axe throwing, a shooting range, campfire food, a bar, music and activities for children as part of an Armed Forces event on Saturday, June 27 from 2pm and 6pm.

Daz Keelor from Kamp Menalhyl said: “This community-led day brings together veterans, families, and local residents to honour service, strengthen wellbeing, and celebrate the spirit of Cornwall’s Armed Forces community.”

Kamp Menalhyl is an off-grid green therapy retreat and outdoor bushcraft site operated by the Newquay HMAF Veterans CIC.

The venue serves as a tranquil sanctuary designed to help military veterans and the wider community improve their mental health through nature.
