If in Doubt - Shut Them Out!
Good advice for anyone! Don't let anyone into your home without knowing exactly who they are and that they have a valid reason for being there. To check this out, take into account the following before letting anyone into your home:
- All council employees must carry their official identity card, which includes their photograph
- All contractors working on behalf of the Council must carry an identity card
- You are strongly advised to check the identity card before allowing anyone access to your home
- All genuine council staff or contractors will be able to provide the name and telephone number of a council officer with whom you can check and will be prepared to wait outside until you have done so
Remember ... You can also check by telephoning our Call Centre on 01793 463463. If in doubt - shut them out!
