TRANSLATION:
The guide, created by Access Cornwall CIC, contains information on wheelchair access, parking, facilities, activities, services, terrain, and dog regulations.
The free guide gives information on 20 accessible beaches and the locations are colour-coded with different accessibility ratings.
Director Viki Carpenter said the guide was a "significant step towards making Cornwall accessible for everyone".
"Our goal is to empower individuals with disabilities to explore and experience the beauty of Cornwall's beaches."
The guide also includes information on where to hire beach wheelchairs and the locations of adapted surfing providers.
PRESENTER James: Our second story concerns the treasure inquest held on 22 July in which seven items uncovered by metal detectorists in Cornwall recently were put forward. Listen out for the following words: bysow [BIZ-oh], ring, armel [AR-mel] bracelet, and sel [sell] seal.
Yn mysk an trovyansow yma penn sethow Oos Brons, bysow klopen owrek a鈥檔 etegves kansvledhen, memento mori dhyworth an setegves kansvledhen hag armel owrek Oos Brons, ha pub tra oll a veu rewlys avel tresor gans an Kouronor.

Onan a鈥檔 trovyansow o sel arghans, usys rag gul argraf war sel gor.
Honn yw a鈥檔 setegves kansvledhen ha memento mori o.
Tra aral kevys bos tresor o armel pur stummys, ogas kepar ha nebonan a gavas an owr pan o nebes teudh ha鈥檔 stummyas a-dro.
Y semlant yw pur deg hag yth o gwrys avel elven afinus.
TRANSLATION
The finds include Bronze Age arrow heads, an 18th century gold skull ring, a memento mori from the 17th century, and a gold Bronze Age bracelet, which were all ruled as treasure by the coroner.
If found objects are determined to be treasure museums can acquire them.
One of the finds was a silver seal, used to make an impression on a wax seal.
This dates back to the 17th century and was a "memento mori".
Another item found to be treasure was a bracelet which was very twisted, almost as if someone has got the gold whilst it was relatively molten and twisted it around.
It looks really pretty and was deliberately made as a decorative element.
PRESENTER James: Our final story concerns the news that Falmouth Sailing Week is set to employ the help of robotic floats designed to better protect marine habitats than standard buoys. Listen out for the following words: skath [SC-ath] boat, golya [GOL-ya] to sail, and gwitha [gw-EE-tha] to protect.
An morverkys yn furv knowen doos, aswonys avel MarkSetBots, yw nerthys dre batriow ha, dell hevel y tiskwedhons movya a-dro aga honan, herwydh sodhogyon.
I a wra usya GPS rag viajya a-dro aga herghynnow hag y hallsons bos kontrolys gans esel an bagas skath kessedhek.
Seythen Golya Aberfala a hwer ynter an nawves ha鈥檔 etegves a vis Est hag y fydh an nessa kesstrif golya y鈥檔 pow dhe usya an robotys merkya-hyns unnik.
Gwella yw an morverkys rag gwitha an kerghynnedh morek drefen nag eus edhom dhedha a ankor.
Henn yw oll ahanav vy, seythen da genowgh.
TRANSLATION
The doughnut-shaped markers, known as MarkSetBots, are battery-powered and appear to move around by themselves, officials say.
They use GPS to navigate their surroundings and could also be controlled by member of the committee boat team.
Falmouth Sailing Week will take place between 9 and 18 August and will be the second regatta in the country to use the unique course-marking robots.
The buoys are better at protecting the marine environment as they do not need an anchor.
That鈥檚 all from me, have a good week.
