Living here - West of the Exe
Living Here is a wide-ranging RAMM initiative involving people who live and work in Alphington, Cowick, Exwick and St Thomas in a variety of projects all about where they live - its past, present and future. It's about celebrating what makes the area special and allowing local stories to be told and preserved.
Living Here projects, activities, events, plays, community exhibitions, new publications, films and radio are all captured on a community managed website. Explore Exeter west of the Exe at the Living Here website and find out how you can get involved.
One of the major initiatives in RAMM's Out and About programme of exhibitions and events during the refurbishment of the Museum building, Living Here - West of the Exe is supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), with substantial funding from Renaissance and a great deal of support from Exeter City Council.
