Marketing & Operations Manager
Helen is Nick’s sister and she successfully set up and established our Lettings Department back in 2013. Having spent much of her career prior to DY working in marketing, Helen now heads up our Marketing & Operations department. This suits her organisational skills, creativity and keen eye for detail perfectly! She loves taking long walks with her Labrador Finn and when time permits, travelling and visiting new places around the globe.
Top of my bucket list is…
To keep travelling, visit more new countries and ultimately, one day explore Europe in a (very comfortable!) camper van.
My guilty pleasure…
Ben & Jerry’s cookie dough ice cream. Probably best to just not buy it!
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
Less shy/more confident. Still working on it…
If I were a superhero, my superpower would be…
To help find a cure for cancer and dementia. Here’s hoping.
On Sunday morning, you can usually find me…
Up bright and early for a long dog walk in the countryside.
You might be surprised to know that…
One of my earliest qualifications as a teenager was as a Clarks trained shoe fitter. Ohh, all those back to school shoes!

The Coronavirus pandemic has created a surge of people feeling anxious and fearful, and low-life scammers are preying on these emotions to trick people out of hundreds of thousands of pounds.
The scammers are using several methods to target people, including text messaging, social media, phishing emails, direct mail and even in person.
Below are five scams we’ve been made aware of that have happened across the UK.
The Advertising Standards Authority have published a useful article on how to avoid falling victim to a Coronavirus scam. The link to it is at the end of this article.
The website www.actionfraud.police.uk is also a useful source of information around how to reduce the risk of being scammed.
These shameless scammers prey on the elderly and vulnerable in particular, so please share this information with them. Perhaps consider give them a call to make them aware of these frauds that are doing the rounds and to check on how they are doing in general.
From all of us at Duncan Yeardley thanks for reading and stay safe.
