Welcome Home
Well hello there, I am delighted you have decided to stop by. My name is Richard Luscombe and this is my portfolio website. I am a public relations, web, business development and marketing person from sunny Cornwall. I have over 15 years experience developing businesses and almost 10 years experience with web and marketing.
This site is designed to introduce you to me, what I can do and what I may be able to offer you. I have worked for companies such as Westcountry Publications, Warburtons, GlaxoSmithKline, The Peninsula College of Medicine & Dentistry, Liskeard School & Community College and Kivells Ltd. Additionally I have completed web and marketing projects for musical artists, leisure and tourism and print manufacturers. My education compliments my career perfectly as I have an honours degree in Computing for Business from the Plymouth University and a Level 6 Diploma in Digital Marketing with the Institute of Direct and Digital Marketing.
I specialise in a number of fields including web design and development, branding and logos, design for printed materials, publicity, marketing and business development and am also a keen photographer.
I’m quite friendly too so if you want to say hi please use the contact form. Enjoy! 🙂

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn’t supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken, probably more than once, and it’s harder every time and you’ll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You will fight with your best friend, blame a new love for things an old one did, cry because time is passing too fast, and eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you’ve never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you’ll never get back.
