Local Councillor, Mark Williamson, is right behind the idea and is inviting people to come up with their ideas for what they want to happen at Orcombe Point be it a café kiosk or something else for the longer term and what type of food and drink people would like. You can send your ideas to Cllr Williamson at: MWilliamson@eastdevon.gov.uk

Exmouth residents will soon be able to recycle up to as much as 60% of their household waste for weekly collection when a new improved recycling service starts in the town from Thursday (February 16.)
East Devon District Council has extended the number of items that households can now collect to include cardboard, mixed plastics, cartons/Tetra Paks and small electrical items.
The new additions mean householders are able to recycle more, throw away less rubbish and put East Devon at the very forefront of environmental sustainability.
A phone charger started a fire which caused significant damage to an Exmouth teenager’s bedroom in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
Fire crews were called to St Margaret’s View at 1.19am and extinguished the fire in a first floor bedroom using a hose reel jet. The room was damaged by fire, heat and smoke.
The girl had seen a fire in the corner of the room and woke the rest of the family. Her mother closed the door of the bedroom and the family were able to leave the house.
Station Manager Nigel Deasy, of Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Service, said: “...
Exmouth households who are receiving a new recycling and waste collection service from February 16, are being reminded to read the information they have been sent as they may have an extra one-off waste collection on Saturday February 11.

The council is asking residents to read the information carefully as it will tell them if their household will receive this additional waste collection. This extra collection does not apply to all Exmouth...
