The Town Crier magazine is produced twice a year, and is delivered to individual houses by “Road Stewards” – residents who volunteer to put the magazine through fellow residents’ front doors.

We’re always looking for new Road Stewards – so if you would like to volunteer about an hour, twice a year, to deliver some Town Criers to your own street or another nearby, please get in touch with Daniel O’Neill, our Chief Road Steward by email or WhatsApp.

The March 2025 issue is our current issue and we’re delivering it this weekend (15/16 March).  The next issue will be the September 2025 issue – which we should begin distributing on 29 August. We need help with deliveries to both flats and some houses.

Deliveries to flats

We really need some help with blocks of flats in general, and along Pembroke Road between Ruislip and Ruislip Manor specifically.  We can’t gain access to flats making up around 200 homes – making for a lot of people that we’re simply not reaching with the Town Crier!  If you live in one of these blocks, or know someone who does, please let Daniel know on 07905 809760, via  WhatsApp. or by email to steward@ruislipresidents.org.uk

Corinthian Court (40 flats)
Metropolitan House (25 flats)
Piccadilly House (15 flats)
Victoria Court (8 flats)
Victoria Road (100 flats above shops)

Holiday and sickness cover

For this issue we have a few Road Stewards away on holiday or sick, and need a temporary volunteer to deliver this time:

If you would like to help us by delivering to any of these shops, flats or houses, please contact Daniel O’Neill, our Chief Road Steward.

What is involved with being a Road Steward?

Volunteering as a Road Steward means that, twice a year, you’ll receive a bundle of magainzes to deliver to a street or block of flats.  The Town Crier magazine is A5 and usually 20-28 pages long, so they are not heavy or bulky.  Most Road Stewards have a patch of either a couple of short streets or a section of a longer street and deliver on average about 50 magazines.  It takes most people less than an hour.

You can can give it a go this time, and if you don’t get on with it, there’s no obligation to continue.  If you’re unwell, less mobile, or need to “retire” from delivering, that’s OK – let Daniel O’Neill know, and someone else can take over your patch.
