Exeter’s city centre CCTV team wins Police and Crime Commissioner’s Award

Exeter’s city centre CCTV Control Room operators have been presented with a special award recognising their outstanding service to community safety.

CCTV Operator Megan Ward received a commendation from Devon and Cornwall’s Police and Crime Commissioner after her great work led to the jailing of a sexual offender in Exeter.

Alison Hernandez visited the City Council’s CCTV Control Room to personally congratulate Megan and her colleagues and present the Commissioner’s Award and certificate.

In November, Megan was praised by detectives for her ‘diligent work’ in tracking down a man following a sexual assault in the city centre.

The attack was captured on CCTV and operators from the Control Room managed to track the perpetrator as he fled across the city centre. However, he soon went out of frame and vanished.

What's onToo Much Too Young - The Story of 2Tone & Beyond

Too Much Too Young

Too Much Too Young - The Story of 2Tone & Beyond at Exeter Corn Exchange

Sat 8 February 7.30pm (doors 6.45) - £28.50 (includes £1.00 booking fee)

Too Much Too Young is a high energy theatre experience showcasing the all-encompassing musical journey of the forever loved and timeless 2Tone Ska movement with an aim to provide an unforgettable moment in time that delves into the history and impact of this iconic period. A truly unique 2-hour theatre spectacle, this non stop Ska party brings back to life the vibrant music and subculture that emerged in the late 1970’s, intertwining it with present day themes that still resonate strongly in 2024 and will continue to do so for many years to come.

Combined with a nine-piece live band formed from some of the finest musicians across the country, our production brings the energy and authenticity of this influential movement directly onto the stage. A show that brilliantly explores how society, politics, and racial equality in both eras overlap, making it both relevant and engaging for audiences of all ages.

The performance also incorporates multimedia screens allowing multi-level storytelling with celebrated visuals and rare archive footage that cleverly builds on the excitement and atmosphere of the whole experience.

"Guaranteed to have you on your feet all night" - Camden Gazette
"A must-see show for any Ska Lover" - Evening Post
