Stop the Loan Sharks

We hope that this will help residents of Twerton.

 Good news –  we are launching our new Stop Loan Sharks reporting app on Wednesday, September 23, and you can download for free on the App Store and Google Play.

 

The app is mainly aimed at frontline professionals and provides useful information on how to recognise the signs of illegal money lending, respond to disclosures and where to refer clients to for specialist support.  

 

If you are concerned that someone you know may be the victim of a loan shark, please call our 24 hour helpline on 0300 555 2222 or seek advice and support through the app. We also have various survivor stories available which can be publicised to encourage others to speak up about their experiences.

 

Please feel free to disseminate the information attached and share widely via your networks.

 

Our promotional landing page provides web users with an overview of the app and links to relevant app stores and share tools.

 

If you have any queries regarding the app or would like to book onto a loan shark awareness course, please contact me on the details below.

Redland Park Litterpick

 We were pleased to be joined by local residents to help with the Community Litterpick in Redland Park this morning.


We have collected 15 bags of rubbish and managed to clear up part of the estate.  We will be back next Saturday at 10.45am to continue with the clear up and so if any others would like to join us to help make a difference to your area please do.


We will put up the event on the Twerton & Whiteway Wombles facebook page.
