Love Topsham is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company funded by donations and entirely run by volunteers. Our activities include organising summer music and bunting, maintaining the flower barrels, ‘doing’ the Christmas lights, holding meet-ups for new residents, and campaigning to promote local businesses and traders.

Topsham is a beautiful Devon estuary town, rich in community activity and independent shops, with a gentle vibe enhanced by our waterside setting and cafe culture.

We’re officially part of Exeter but have a distinctive look and feel, which started with our unique maritime and architectural history.

Today, there are over 50 independent businesses in our town.

Some invoke the glories of the High Street, like our charming second-hand bookshop and clock repair workshop; others are modern, like the former fire station that is now a craft ale microbrewery and bar; and don’t forget our Saturday morning market, which has become a food and craft must-visit.

We are brimful of community groups too.

Whether it’s a book club or the town museum, a fine arts society or our repair cafe, you will find a home for the enthusiasm you already have, and for the passion you may well develop after you move here.

Oh – and Love Topsham operates this website and town calendar too.

So whether you’re a resident, business, group or visitor – welcome!
