EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from March 1990, we are transported back to the bustling streets of Lostwithiel, Cornwall during a vibrant Red Nose Day event. The image captures the true spirit of community and charity as four individuals stand proudly in front of Fore Street. From left to right, we see Jude and Peter Martelli alongside Frances and John Webb, all united in their efforts to raise money for Comic Relief's Red Nose Day. Jude Martelli, known for running an esteemed art gallery in town, radiates enthusiasm while sporting a red nose that perfectly complements her warm smile. Beside her stands Peter Martelli, his eyes twinkling with determination as he holds out a collection tin towards passersby. Frances Webb exudes elegance donning traditional Cornish tartan attire complete with a top hat adorned with cornish pipes. Her husband John Webb stands beside her showcasing his craft pottery items produced at his neighboring studio. Photographer Jonathan Barker expertly captures this momentous occasion where locals come together to support those less fortunate through laughter and generosity. The vibrant colors and lively expressions captured within this photograph serve as a testament to the unwavering spirit of compassion found within the people of Lostwithiel. This remarkable snapshot serves as a timeless reminder that even small communities can make an immense impact when they unite for a common cause – bringing hope and joy into the lives of others on Red Nose Day.
