Partnership Network
Exeter became a UNESCO City of Literature thanks to the number and quality of businesses, institutions, and organisations in Exeter and Devon that are focused on literature and storytelling.
We bring these various organisations together on a monthly basis to share resources and updates within the network, plan events, and visit one another to converse in person.
