Scam Awareness Week

All this week (Monday 22nd-Sunday 28th May) is Scam Awareness Week, an annual campaign run by Citizens Advice in close collaboration with the Consumer Protection Partnership (CPP).

This year’s campaign will not only focus on giving people the skills to identify scams but additionally offering support around home improvement and energy efficiency scams. This campaign will also run for a week in 3-9 July.

The increased financial pressures many are facing has put more people into difficult situations, facing issues such as debt or not being able to afford essential goods and services. There are so many different types of scams emerging on a daily basis so it is vitally important we equip our local community, local groups or organisations representing consumers and ourselves and our families.
