Self-written death notice of a pioneering hyperlocal reporter


For over 60 years, Harmer Joyce covered her village for the North Norfolk News. This was before the guys at now-defunct hyperlocal news startup Backfence.com had even coined the term 'hyperlocal' journalism.

Joyce died last week, aged 87. Before she died, she wrote her own death notice.
