This is the final episode of Footprints as Bathscape itself draws to a close early in 2026. And so for the first time ever, the Bathscape team gathered together in the same room to mark the end of an era.
I’m joined by Bathscape’s Manager Dan Merrett; Community Projects Officer and Walking Festival Organiser Lucy Bartlett and Volunteer Coordinator Emma Carlisle.
We bring you clips from our favourite episodes over the 5 years and use them to draw out the breadth and the depth of the work of Bathscape.
