This week we are leading on the story of a man who says the Government’s ’bedroom tax’ has backfired, leaving him unable to downsize.

Also in this week is a man who is cycling the four corners of the UK to raise money for the oncology unit at Torbay Hospital, a massive pothole opened up in Church Street after the heavy rain on Sunday and we have reports from the events that took place over the weekend.

As usual there is also the family announcements, public notices, letters to the editor, Village Voice pages, clubs and societies and what’s on, plus much more inside.
