We're back tomorrow with our new participatory photography project, Chasing the Light. We can't wait to get started on a new 14-week journey @exetercommunity that includes visits @westtownfarm & @ExeterCathedral + lots of interactive photography activities #Exeter#Photovoice
Delighted to see that #Exeter has been ranked #9 in a list of top 30 greenest towns & cities in the UK (research from @holidu)!
Having a high density and variety of accessible parks & #greenspaces across the city is a vital step to achieving our #NetZeroExeter Plan

The sprouts are coming! 🌱😋🎄 I'm now starting to feel that the emergence of Brussel Sprouts, is a true signal of approaching Autumn & time to plan for next season! 🤔📝💻 Anyone else feel this way? Anyhow, this is the Maximus F1 variety #allotment#BrusselSprouts#Exeter#NoDig
Can you help? @ColabExeter really need some volunteer help with our garden - it needs some TLC 💚💐🌻Are you green fingered and could spare a couple of hours a week please DM me or email [email protected]
In goes the final courgette! Such a satisfying process of bringing on a plant from seed & planting it out. This is Defender F1 variety & apparently a heavy cropper, we shall see🤞#allotment#growyourown#Exeter#NoDig
Shout out to @ArtWorkExeter who've received @ace_national funding, w/ which they can deliver online activity.

"No one thought of me as “the kind to attempt suicide”. Yet, in the early hours of March 13th 2013, I got out of bed, left my sleeping family, drove to a nearby bridge & jumped." - @gillhayes2#Depression#Suicide#MentalHealth#TEDx#Exeter https://t.co/pN95KvC7I3
"So as we look to a brighter tomorrow, let's recognise the fact that we are the people we've been waiting for, we are sufficient unto the challenge, and we are becoming the change we seek." @CormacRussell#TEDxExeter#ABCD#Community https://t.co/1RuMpJrxK1
"If the richest 10% gave 10% of their incomes to charity, what could we do? Well, that would be $4 trillion a year. @JeffDSachs estimates that it would cost $175 billion a year for 2 decades to solve global poverty forever." Beth Barnes #EffectiveAltruism https://t.co/PcqMLLUzfy
"When you think about child hunger as a barrier to education, you don't tend to think about this country. But this morning, all over the country, half a million children went to school too hungry to learn." @MagicCarmel#TEDxExeter#Education#SocialChange https://t.co/0o3rUdStNR
"Suicide rates in the UK are shockingly high. It is a huge, yet so often overlooked & misunderstood problem in our society. Suicide is the number one cause of death among all young people aged 20-34 & men under 50." - @gillhayes2#Suicide#Depression https://t.co/DqUzbC0N3q
"Imagine what would happen if our traditional ways of helping people were flipped. If instead of focusing on what was wrong with individuals, & indeed with entire communities, we started with a focus on what’s strong." - @CormacRussell#ABCD#Community https://t.co/imT2w1bO8s
Our Exeter Aperture Project drew to a close last week with the handing out of the self curated photobooks. HUGE thanks to @devoncf for helping to make this project possible & to all of our participants, as without them we have no project! 👏👏 #photography#Exeter#Photovoice
