The University is supporting the creation of play spaces and activity trails in a well-known Exeter park; Barton Fields. Working in partnership with the local community, the University Grounds team have donated materials to help create fun and active spaces for all to use. Alongside a grant of £41,620 made available from the Alcoa Foundation, this will help regenerate the park for the local community to enjoy.

Community consultation to explore how this funding and the University materials can be used is due to take place on 11 July and everyone is welcome with ideas to help shape development of the park. Contact laura.robinson@corganisers.org.uk for more details.
