Today we launch the Tom Love Trust, raising money in memory of our son Tom who passed away in Africa in December. We'd love everyone to support it and keep the ripples of Tom's life alive and supporting kids in the UK and Africa. More details at tomlovetrust.com

Cornwall’s finally got a growth story that isn’t EU subsidy. Lithium, tin, the West’s biggest tungsten resource, and Britain’s first deep geothermal plant. Real rock, real jobs. My take in this week’s MoneyWeek
Ocean Wall Ltd@oceanwall2Jul 30
Ocean Wall's Chairman & Founder Nick Lawson writes the Opinion piece in this week's MoneyWeek that Cornwall has finally got a growth story after 25 years of EU-funded stagnation, and it’s built on real rock: lithium, tin, the West’s biggest tungsten resource, plus Britain’s first deep geothermal plant. China’s tungsten export squeeze (APT price up 10x since early 2025) just made Redmoor and Hemerdon strategically vital, not just geologically interesting. But Imerys shelving St Austell after France threw €50m at a rival project is the real lesson: geology never wins funding battles, state cheques do. The National Wealth Fund has backed the right projects (Cornish Lithium, Cornish Metals) but its remit is too broad to act like an anchor investor. Britain needs one properly scaled processing hub and a tungsten stockpile, framed as national security, not regional aid. Otherwise Kazakhstan or France gets there first. reader.moneyweek.com/2026/07…

Boom times for Cornwall
