Projects in Partnership

While I’m busily working on gathering information for our exhibition, there are many others also working to develop ways of engaging with Exeter City FC’s history and heritage.  You may be interested to find out more about the Exeter Time Trails project, a collaboration between Gabriella Giannachi and Will Barrett from the Centre for Intermedia at the University of Exeter, Rick Lawrence, Tom Cadbury and Helen Burbage at Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Art Gallery (RAMM) and Andy Chapman from 1010 media.

The Exeter Time Trails project aim to develop a mobile app allowing users to follow tours within Exeter Museum (RAMM), and around the city of Exeter, visiting sites of interest within themes connected to time periods or particular subjects.  Working in partnership with Exeter City, and Exeter City Supporters Trust, the team have now begun working on an ECFC themed trail.  This will guide users around St. James’ Park and other local sites, telling the stories which reveal their importance in the development of our unique club.

The Exeter Time Trails blog has been recently updated with a full account of the team’s process in building the trail – definitely worth a read.  I’m very much looking forward to meeting some of the team soon, and getting their advice on the web development aspect of the exhibition project.

There will be more news on partner projects in the future – follow this blog to make sure you don’t miss anything!
