AngloINFO Bretagne serves the four départements of Brittany, Cotes
d'Armor (22), Finistere (29), Ille et Villain (35) and Morbihan (56).
AngloINFO Bretagne launched on the 1st June 2003 with
Franchisee Richard Barnes taking over the operation in March
2005. Born in 1966, regretfully after the world cup final,
Richard spent 18 years working in the Financial Services
industry, working with companies such as Scottish Amicable and
Friends Provident. His last job before moving to Brittany was
as the National Sales Manager for Teachers' Building Society.
In May 2003, Richard, his wife Sarah and children Eleanor,
Abigail and Matthew moved to Brittany to spend more time
together as a family, as Sarah was still recovering from a
major illness. They bought and renovated a number of
properties in Trélivan in the Côtes d'Armor Department from
where Sarah runs a Gîte business.
Since taking over AngloINFO Bretagne Richard has appeared
on BBC Radio Four's Today Programme as an expert and AngloINFO
Bretagne has also helped with background work with TV
programmes on the BBC, ITV and Channel Four. The rapid growth
of AngloINFO Bretagne since March 2005 has delighted
Richard and he expects his team to expand rapidly towards the
end of 2005 and during 2006.
