On Saturday November 29th 2025 members of seven neighbourhood groups and the Devon Voice Group came together to celebrate their great work and to receive reward and recognition from their local councillors.  There was just the right balance of glitz and sparkle with good old community-based fun.

This year we introduced (with huge thanks to Kev Pearson) a new "speed dating' feature where groups were encouraged to move around the tables and share their stories. Thank you everyone who embraced the idea and all those who stayed on their tables to represent.  You're all just fantastic!!
