Devoncast - A pool protest, good news for tourism and a Dartmoor headache

Devoncast

Friday, 16 May 2025 - 39 minutes

It’s another jam-packed week on Devoncast as the team scours the county and talks to the people behind the headlines.

In Torbay the tourist trade is ready to bounce back after the double blow of Covid and cryptosporidium, while in Exeter protesters are on the streets fighting for their beloved swimming pool.

One Devon MP is pioneering a mental health programme in local schools while another is going into battle against cowboy parking firms.

It’s the end of the road for two Dartmoor stalwarts, and there’s a warning over wildfires across some of the county’s most spectacular countryside.

It's all in the latest edition of Devoncast, from Radio Exe and the Local Democracy Reporting Service.
