Cornish Sea Salt is harvested from Grade A Classified waters (the highest to denote water purity) just 8 metres from the shore and offers more taste for less salt. Our sea salt contains more than 60 naturally-occurring trace elements, making it a healthier alternative to traditional table salt. 'Cornish Sea Salt has a wonderfully unique texture and crumbles easily between the fingers', says Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and James Martin calls us 'The Gucci of British sea salt'!

I received a letter from DVLA reminding me to get a new tax disk last month. With Christmas coming along I resolved to sort it out in the New Year. Everything was fine until it came to finding a local Post Office at which point I discovered yet another nearby village Post Office had closed and, with an expired tax disc, I faced a clamp and a fine by driving into town to get a replacement. It's an experience that is being repeated nationwide and across Warwickshire.
