🎉 The Great Scaffold Takedown is almost here!
The internal scaffolding will be removed between 22nd and 26th June.

⚠️ On Thursday 25th June, a limited number of stalls will be trading from the front entrance area while the work takes place. Many of your regular traders can still be found in the front entrance area and throughout the outdoor market, which will be fully open as usual.

✅ Saturday 27th June sees the return of our normal indoor market as the restoration project reaches this exciting milestone.

Can you help us? We have a number of activities this summer that need recycled materials. We are looking for:
-Kitchen roll tubes
-Margarine tubs (500g size)
-Plastic bottles (500ml size)

If you have any of these, or can collect a few for us, we would very much appreciate it if you can drop them in during opening hours. We will need them for the Summer Holidays. We are particularly short of margarine tubs. Thank you!

🚨 Community Emergency Hubs are community-run spaces where local people can come together to support one another and take swift, safe and effective action in those crucial early moments before emergency services arrive.

Devon Communities Together is providing a FREE Community Emergency Hub kit to 100 communities across the county (first come first served). To be eligible for a kit you need to do three things:
1️⃣ Interested community members should attend an online workshop (link below)
2️⃣ A suitable location within the community must be agreed and identified
3️⃣ The community should be notified about the hub

Join one of the FREE sessions in June to find out more about Community Emergency Hubs, and you will be one step closer to creating a more resilient and prepared community 💚

Sometimes I think I’d quite like castle life for a week or two. Have majestic, noble lurcher for fireside, will castle. This stunning image by of our very own certainly fits the dream as well as the moody weather we’ve got at the moment. Have a good Tuesday everyone.
