Maldon town crier joins Specsavers celebration

The town crier of Maldon, Essex was on hand to help a local Specsavers practice celebrate its one-year anniversary.

He was joined by a stilt walker to welcome shoppers into the store, where they were treated to birthday cake and refreshments.

Paul Wickson, store director of Specsavers Maldon (also pictured), said: ‘Celebrating our first birthday is fantastic – I honestly can’t believe where the last year has gone. There is never a dull moment and I have seen the store go from strength to strength. I feel very lucky to be celebrating with such a great team. I’d also like to thank all of our customers for their continued support as we really couldn’t have done it without them.’
