What’s Happening in Hayle This May Bank Holiday? Dog Lovers Won’t Want to Miss This
A big birthday for a beloved charity
On Bank Holiday Monday, 5th May, Hayle will be buzzing with wagging tails, happy faces and community spirit as The Cinnamon Trust marks its 40th anniversary with a special celebration at the Hayle Recreation Ground.
Kicking off at 11:30am, the event begins with The Big Walk, a scenic group stroll along the King George V Memorial Walk, inviting supporters, volunteers and their furry companions to come together in celebration.
This local event is part of the charity’s nationwide Big Walk, which brings together animal lovers across the country to connect, share stories, and raise awareness of the Trust’s work with pet owners.
“Pets are more than just animals, they are family”
Patrick Williams, Chief Executive of The Cinnamon Trust, said:
“For forty years, we have celebrated the special bond between owners and their pets, working alongside compassionate animal lovers nationwide to preserve it. Every individual who has supported our mission understands, at the heart of it, that pets are more than just animals, they are family.
On May 5th, we will come together to honour our incredible community and the quiet animal heroes who stand by us through life’s ups and downs, making our lives richer, fuller, and truly extraordinary.”
A full day of tail-wagging fun
Following the walk, the celebration continues at the Recreation Ground with a lively Dog Show, hosted by Rewind Radio and opened by the Cornwall Search Dogs. Expect crowd-pleasing categories, adorable contenders and plenty of opportunities to cheer on your favourites.
There’ll also be puppuccinos, doggy treats and charity stalls to explore, including local names like Flicka, Cornish Seal Sanctuary, Prickles and Paws, and Sue’s Cat Rescue. A tombola will be running throughout the day with prizes up for grabs.
Free goodies for walkers
Those who register and join the walk with their dog will receive a special 40th anniversary bandana for their four-legged friend, plus a free goody bag to collect on the day.
This year’s Big Walk is sponsored by The Pets Larder, a Cornwall-based award-winning natural pet shop dedicated to pet wellbeing.
