A family from Exeter have donated a Cuddle Cot to the Labour Ward at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital in memory of their son Louie.
The cot enables bereaved parents to spend more time with their babies if they are stillborn or pass away shortly after birth. The cooling cot can be wrapped around a baby allowing parents to stay with them for longer and giving other family members a chance to say goodbye.
Emma Bolt and Ace High decided to start fundraising for a new Cuddle Cot for the RD&E’s Labour Ward after they used one with their son Louie, who sadly passed away on...

Tiff Stevenson brings her critically acclaimed 8th solo show Bombshell on tour across the UK in 2018.
Bombshell premiered at the Edinburgh Festival’s Gilded Balloon last August and is her most political show yet. The tour starts on 1 March and includes a performance at Exeter's Bike Shed Theatre on 18 March.
Some say she oscillates wildly between Sylvia Plath & Beyonce, “like Belva Lockwood fused with your drunken Aunt.” (Edinburgh 49+3) Tiff says she’s very very funny and a right old smarty-pants. She also says she’s very, very, very modest.
Award-winning comedian Samantha Baines has announced a small UK tour for 2018 taking in eight dates starting on 8th February, including a show in Exeter at the Bike Shed Theatre on Sunday 4th March.
Her critically acclaimed hour ‘1 Woman, A High-Flyer & A Flat Bottom’ already completed a sell out run at 2017’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival and has a forthcoming run at Soho Theatre this December. Expect facts, puns and an ear trumpet attached to a whiskey bottle. Samantha’s naturally charming wit ensures big laughs and her boundless enthusiasm for science means you might learn a...

Community minded businesses, such as cafes and shops, are being encouraged to join a growing movement to help the environment.
The concept is simple. Reduce the number of plastic bottles being thrown away by inviting people to re-fill their water bottles with tap water for free. It’s a win-win; good for the environment; good for people’s health, to hydrate with water rather than sugary drinks; and good PR for the businesses and charities that open their doors to thirsty passers-by. What began as a local campaign in Bude, Refill now has attracted national appeal with a diverse range...
