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 FOCS motto
"Kyntelleugh an brewyon es gesys na vo kellys travyth"
- — "Gather ye the fragments that are left, that nothing be lost".
