It was a day of inspiration with talented young authors at Exeter Library on Saturday, celebrating the waste short story competition award ceremony. This event, held in collaboration with SUEZ and Libraries Unlimited, saw award certificates and prizes presented to authors of the top stories, judged by Michael and Clare Morpurgo. Each story was read aloud by Recycle Devon Waste Educators, accompanied by a musical animation, creating a wonderful story-reading atmosphere.
