Case Study: Path Improvements
Supported by the Access for All Fund
In 2025 – 2026 the Access for All Fund provided a grant to the East Devon Pebblebed Heaths Conservation Trust to transform a section of the East Devon Way at Woodbury Common into a much more accessible and welcoming route.
The team cleared overgrown scrub and installed critical drainage to fix what was once an intimidating, muddy path.
