Birth & Death & Here & Now is about exactly those things; The moment of birth, the moment of death and the moment that is happening right now. The show explores each moment with a joyful mix of childish freedom and the hindsight of life experience, drawing on the real feelings and experiences of Adam and the people present in the room with him.
We meet ourselves in baby form, we are confronted by one of the many possible manifestations of death and we are thrown into the NOW with Adam as he seeks to ride the moment that we are all living together.
Grab those goggles and go for it! Sign up now for Exeter Hospiscare’s Swimathon coming to the city next month.
Devon and Cornwall Police has offered its pool at Middlemoor HQ as the venue for this exciting new event.
There are six lanes and each team has 55 minutes to swim as far as it can in its dedicated lane – so it’s not a race and you can go as fast or as slow as you like.
“This is a great chance to have fun as a team, swimming in a great pool,” said Paula Lawford, of Exeter Friends of Hospiscare who is organising the event.

Zoe Drew, 22 from Sidmouth, has donated box-loads of toys and games to Bramble Ward at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital to help entertain young patients.
This year, instead of asking for birthday and Christmas presents from her family and friends, Zoe asked for gifts that could be donated to the children’s ward to help patients beat the boredom whilst in hospital.
Zoe said: “In August 2014 I had an illness that led to me being in a wheelchair. I’ve spent the last 17 months coming in and out of hospital, so I know how boring it can be in here.”
