This is posted on behalf of and in the words of our very own Ilfracombe Town Crier, Mr Roy Goodwin:

“I'm sure there is someone in Ilfracombe (male or female) who is not shy and has a bit of a voice!

I am looking for an assistant Town Crier to learn the ropes before I retire.

Don't let the job I have built up finish with me.

OK you are not going to get rich but, if you want you could travel the world (at your own expense) or round the UK or just in town promoting this lovely old town. You will meet incredible people particularly on Ilfracombe pier!

You would have to be accepted by Ilfracombe Town Council but, they have been very supportive of me.

If you think you are the future Ilfracombe Town Crier please get in touch with me at royezbnme@talktalk.net

Thanks

Roy Goodwin”

Don’t get scammed ! If it sounds too good to be true it probably is.

Complaints received by the Citizens Advice Consumer Service and by the Trading Standards Services show that every year in the South West, hundreds of people are conned by or encounter problems with scammers and rogue traders.

It is estimated that UK consumers lose up to £3.5 billion per year to a variety of scams that exploit low-cost, mass-marketing techniques to target recipients. These include bogus prize draws and lotteries, premium-rate prize promotions, psychic mailings and miracle health cures that mislead recipients.
