In Devon, approximately 135,000 people look after someone who couldn’t manage without their help and receive no payment for it. Some are new to caring, while others have cared for a family member, friend or neighbour for some time. It’s an invaluable role but carers often feel alone or unsupported, particularly in light of the current cost-of-living crisis.
Devon Carers, part of Westbank Community Health and Care, is hosting a free Information and Advice Fair specifically for unpaid carers on Carers Rights Day. The event will take place on Thursday 24th November at the Exeter...

Exeter Corn Exchange was one of just a handful of venues that was able to present a professional pantomime in 2020, and its acclaimed production of 'The Wizard of Oz' ran safely and with great joy for 32 performances until the run was ended abruptly by the sudden imposition of national lockdown.
Once again this year, all fingers are crossed that 'Beauty and the Beast'- Exeter's only professional pantomime- will be able to complete its scheduled performances and bring all the traditional family fun we need in 2021.
Husband and wife team Ian Berry and Tanya Euridge have used...
Indie-pop trio Scouting for Girls have confirmed a huge UK tour for Autumn 2021, including a date at Exeter Corn Exchange on 25th October.
With their new album ‘Easy Cover’ due on 23rd April, the band have announced an extensive UK tour for the Autumn. Going back to the music and culture of their childhoods in the 1980s, the band regrouped during what should have been a summer of festivals to create a joyous album of 80s covers alongside some incredible new tracks, and an optimism that 2021 can be everything that 2020 was not.
The spirit of Christmas can never be defeated, and just like Santa, panto will always find a way to make an appearance!
That is certainly the case at Exeter Corn Exchange, where preparations are being made for this year’s pantomime, The Wizard of Oz!
In true theatre tradition the show must go on and with the Coronavirus pandemic, organisers have been working hard to ensure this year’s production allows safe family fun, with extra precautions put in place.

Rich Hall and his Hoedown band begin their second leg of touring this autumn with their Hoedown show for 2017. Never has there been a better time to be an American comedian in the UK.
Hall’s precision dismantling of the tenuous relationship between the two countries is as freewheeling and deadly accurate as ever.
This Hoedown tour begins as a withering dissection of Trump’s America and all of its twists and turns, but ends up in a celebration of Americana. There’s stand-up, improvised ballads, cracking good musicianship, and ultimately a hilarious, foot-stomping, shit-...
