Loan Shark Warning For Residents

Dear Members

Residents are being urged to be on their guard against unscrupulous loan sharks who may try to exploit the coronavirus outbreak and prey on people's financial worries.

Please find attached a news release on behalf of the England Illegal Money Lending team.

Finally so many of you are adhering to the Covid-19 regulations and I would like to thank everyone for their support by Staying at Home, Protecting the NHS and Saving Lives. However we have seen many who are gathering in certain places and we are receiving a high number of calls relating to Covid Breaches.

This can be avoided by ensuring that your households are all aware about the importance not to meet others, even friends or family that are not in your house hold. You can spread the virus even if you don't have symptoms. For more information about the rules of the lockdown and updates visit the below link.

Stay Safe and Stay Well. If you see something, Say Something and Report it.
