What is Hayle Twinning Association?

As you probably noticed on the town signs welcoming visitors to Hayle, we are twinned with Pordic, (just north of St. Brieuc) on the Cote d’Armor in Brittany and we have been doing exchanges with them for about fourteen years. Each May we host a group from Pordic for a long weekend and then we have a return trip in August/September which provides the opportunity to share aspects of our cultures and everyday lives and generally have a good time with our “twins”.
Many of the French speak excellent English but in the relaxed social atmosphere it’s the ideal opportunity to try improving the French conversation skills. Our “twins” are incredibly hospitable and we’re sure that the association does a great deal towards “Entente Cordiale”
If you’re interested please contact any of the above.
