    Truro City manager Leigh Robinson says a renewed confidence is the reason his side have turned their results around.

    A 2-0 win at Chelmsford City was the third victory in a five-game unbeaten run that has seen the White tigers move out of the National League South relegation places.

    "There's no magic formula, to be honest. We're just a much fitter team and a much better team in terms of the people we've brought in," he told BBC Radio Cornwall.

    "Results breed confidence and that's what gets you results.

    "All credit to the players for pulling out a great result."

    Devon and Cornwall's police commissioner wants motoring fines for offences such as speeding or using a hand-held mobile phone to be increased.

    Alison Hernandez said the extra money could then be put towards more safety measures on the roads.

    According to road safety charity Brake, there were 63 road deaths in the Devon and Cornwall Police force area in 2017.

    This is compared to 51 in 2016 and 36 in 2015.

    Ms Hernandez said this was a "scary statistic" and she wanted to put up fines for distraction driving offences from £100 to at least £130...

    Services to tackle drug and alcohol misuse in Torbay are set to lose £100,000 of funding next year.

    A report to Torbay Council's Priorities and Resources Review Panel said savings would be found by service provider the Torbay and South Devon NHS Trust.

    Councillors were told the savings could be made without a damaging effect on clients.

    Public Health Director Caroline Dimond said: "I think in this instance we are hoping we can do this without affecting not only the users of our services but their families as well."

    The £100,000 savings will mean a 4% budget cut next year to £2.37m.

    The cuts will come from further streamlining management, reducing the time patients spend with professionals, considering cuts to prescribing sessions for opiate substitute therapy and changing the treatment approach for some groups by providing less contact.
