Awards and Accreditations

Falmouth Town Council’s ‘Town Team’ (partnership between our Town Management team and Falmouth BID) won ‘UK & Ireland Best Event’ at the Association of Town & City Management industry awards in June 2024 for their delivery of the Tall Ships festival in Falmouth last summer.

Many congratulations to our Environmental, Education and Enforcement (E3O) Officer, Tessa Marie who was the winner of the Community Safety Accreditation Scheme Award at Devon and Cornwall’s Citizens in Policing Awards 2023.

Tessa makes up one half of our E3O team along with her colleague Eammon Murphy. Their roles as E3Os are primarily to offer educational advice and support to members of the community. They look to achieve this by being a friendly face and a point of contact, working with community groups, residents, schools, visitors, Falmouth Town Councillors, partner organisations, and businesses to deliver education and awareness campaigns designed to tackle common environmental issues, such as dog fouling, littering, fly-tipping, beach safety and anti-social behaviour.

At a full Council meeting on 11 December 2023 Falmouth Town Councillors voted unanimously to:

• sign up to become a White Ribbon Supporter Organisation
• to make White Ribbon Day part of the Civic Calendar
• to encourage all Councillors and staff to take the pledge

Domestic abuse happens throughout every level of society, regardless of health, wealth and status. Abuse and violence are a choice and there is no excuse for them.
