The Ramsgate Recorder
A free quarterly magazine to discover modern-day Ramsgate.
People • Art & Culture • Business • Music
Spring issue out now!

Our summer 2026 issue is here, and we can’t wait to share it with you!
Our cover star is Sam Battle, aka @lookmumnocomputer, as he prepares to wow the crowds at the Eurovision Song Contest. He talks to us about how he went from successful YouTuber to UK representative at @bbceurovision, the world’s largest live music event, and how he plans to feature some of his famous synths from his museum This Museum is (Not) Obsolete. This fantastic cover photo was taken by @mredthompson
We go behind the doors of the new @thebookhotelramsgate at @the_falstaff Falstaff as they look ahead to making Ramsgate a book lovers destination with a new literary festival launching in May.
We meet the makers on the high street and find out more about their collaborative approach to their craft, including brand new Minnie-Mae Studio @minniemaestudio, Coco Barcley
@cocobarclaylondonhandbags, Godessa Jewellery @godessajewellery,
and Turner Rowe @turner_rowe_art_centre.
We spill the beans on creating our first dedicated youth title, @RamsgateRising, and look ahead to what comes next for this brand new magazine.
Elsewhere in this issue, we interview Formula 1 artist Colin Carter @colincarterartwork, celebrate 100 years of the Westcliff Rose Garden, shop around Ramsgate’s international supermarkets, and get the inside scoop on @creativecatalystthanet linking young people with jobs in the creative industries.
Come and get your copy tonight at our launch, where we celebrate our town’s people and stories at @noarooftop bar above the Granville Theatre from 6-9pm.
See you there!

Huge well done to everyone for a fantastic St George's Day Spring Parade and celebration of #PrideinPlace at Ramsgate today!

The first ever @ramsgaterising has landed! And today will be a chance to be the first to pick up a copy of this all-new youth-led magazine. Driven by our editor @lilawanda, we couldn’t be more proud of the amazing team who came together to make this happen.
Here is what the Ramsgate Rising team have said about their brand new magazine:
“Here is it! Our first ever issue of Ramsgate Rising, the new youth magazine for the town and our surrounding areas.
Our special feature is Sam Battle, AKA @lookmumnocomputer, who is taking the UK to the Eurovision Song Contest in 2026, and who tells us all about his renowned success in the music industry.
We also speak to some of ramsgate’s rising stars, Lucy Taylor, Caitlin Neaves and Charlotte Webb. Three local artists who tell us all about their experiences in the creative arts world.We visit the Pie Factory to find out about some of their success stories and speak about important topics such as the housing and climate crisis! Whats more, we explore our town guide, a helpful advice column talking about exciting opportunities for young people!
We’re so excited to bring you stories chosen and written by Ramsgate’s young writers and storytellers, and can’t wait to share with you our extraordinary vision of our town. So pick up a copy today and enjoy a good read!”
The magazine is launching today at @saint_george_church_ramsgate as part of Ramsgate Pride in Place until 3.30pm
A huge congratulations to Ramsgate’s budding journalists and storytellers! 🙌💖

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
