The Federation of Old Cornwall Societies

The Federation of Old Cornwall Societies (FOCS) was formed in 1924, with the objective of collecting and maintaining "all those ancient things that make the spirit of Cornwall — its traditions, its old words and ways, and what remains to it of its celtic language and nationality". The motto of the federation is "Kyntelleugh an brewyon es gesys na vo kellys travyth", which translated into English is "Gather ye the fragments that are left, that nothing be lost".
