🖤 Celebrating Windrush in Devon 🖤

Our inspiring project Celebrating Windrush in Devon highlights the powerful legacy of the Windrush generation – people who came from the Caribbean to the UK (from around 1948 to 1971) and helped rebuild post-war Britain.

Up to 50,000 nurses could quit the UK if the government’s immigration proposals are implemented.

Brilliant news for xenophobes. Not particularly great for patients and the elderly.

The NHS isn't safe under Labour, Tories or Farage.

Great news from RAMM! Exeter’s RAMM (Royal Albert Memorial Museum) has just been awarded the National Autistic Society’s Autism Friendly Award.

It’s a big step towards making Exeter a more inclusive city for everyone.

An older woman with long white hair and a red dress stands beside a young person wearing headphones and a striped shirt. They appear to be inside a museum, looking up with interest. The woman has a hand gently resting on the young person’s shoulder, and a large animal display is partially visible behind glass.
