Scientists in Cornwall are making a final appeal for people to take part in research that will shed light on the health effects of marine pollution.

I am both excited and nervous as I begin this journey into the unknown, a little sceptical, as nothing I have tried in the past has made the slightest bit of difference to aid my sleep, not even sleeping tablets and I have believed, for quite some time now, that I am beyond help.
First, let me tell you a bit about myself. I am 44, happily married, with a beautiful 8-year-old son who is my world. I...
It is essential the Government comes clean and announces its plans for those NHS areas in the worst financial trouble, including Devon, before the election. Otherwise, the public will quite rightly conclude Ministers are trying to “bury bad news” until after May 7th.
