Eleanor Ward

Eleanor joined the Exe Estuary Management Partnership team in April 2024 on secondment as part of the University of Exeter’s ‘Graduate Business Partnership’ scheme. Prior to starting her role, she graduated from Cardiff University in 2023 with a first class BSc honours degree in Marine Geography.

Having always lived a short distance from Devon’s beautiful landscapes, Eleanor developed a genuine fascination for local wildlife and coastal areas from an early age. Her studies have fostered a particular interest in coastal formations, marine wildlife and ecosystems. In her spare time, Eleanor enjoys bodyboarding in North Devon, kayaking down the River Exe and snorkelling in the south-west and abroad.

In her role, Eleanor will be helping the team to coordinate projects along the Exe Estuary.
