The week kicks off with two "Active Days" on Lemon Quay on Monday and Tuesday with a sports market and taster sessions of different activities.
Wednesday will be a dedicated "Healthy Lifestyle Day" with experts from Cornwall's Health Promotion Service setting up alongside Truro Farmers' Market offering advice and information on nutrition, healthy workplace initiatives, BMI checks and fitness programmes.
This is followed by "Wheels Day" on Thursday, with taster sessions of wheelchair basketball and cycling on the Quay alongside demonstrations from Truro's Clive Mitchell Cycles.
