Forty Years of Mebyon Kernow
Mebyon Kernow was started with a meeting on Saturday 6th January 1951 at Oates; Temperance Hotel, Redruth - since closed.
We did not know then how our message would be received by the Cornish people and, indeed, in the first few years it was difficult to make our voice heard. Nevertheless, we had to make an attempt to assert the nationhood of Cornwall in all ways.
A celebration was held to mark the 40th anniversary at the Ponsmere, Perranporth in January 1991. This video records that celebration and interviews some of the key figures from Mebyon Kernow, over the years including one of the founders and past Chairman Richard Jenkin.
