It’s National Allotments Week, and we’re digging deep into fraud prevention with Take Five’s ‘Protect Your Patch’ campaign!
Just like tending a garden, staying safe from scams means taking your time, being aware of what’s growing around you, and looking after your patch.
We have for many years, run Scam Awareness sessions for free in the community (let usknow if you would like us to talk at a group you know!). As a reminder, we’re helping older adults and their families stay scam aware with three simple steps:
🌺Stop – Take a moment before sharing your money or personal details
🌼Challenge – Is it genuine? Don’t be afraid to say no
🌻Protect – Report fraud and contact your bank immediately if something feels wrong.
Let’s nurture our defences and root out fraud together 🪴
