age uk nottingham &<br />

nottinghamshire is<br />

providing fraud & scams<br />

support to older people<br />

by Age UK Nottingham & Nottinghamshire<br />

Age UK Nottingham & Nottinghamshire has<br />

launched a new scams prevention and support<br />

programme for older people in Nottinghamshire.<br />

The programme, funded by Lloyds Banking Group,<br />

will help to prevent older people from falling for<br />

scams by increasing their knowledge and confidence<br />

to recognise and deal with attempted scams. It will<br />

also provide support to older fraud victims recovering<br />

after an incident.<br />

Older people can be particularly vulnerable to fraud<br />

and scams, which can have a serious emotional and<br />

financial impact, and can damage quality of life and<br />

wellbeing for many.<br />

Sophisticated scams have been on the rise during the<br />

pandemic with criminals devising even more ways to<br />

target those they believe to be vulnerable. This means<br />

it’s even more vital to support those that may be at<br />

greater risk.<br />

Nottinghamshire’s Scams Prevention and Support<br />

Programme, please contact the Safe & Sound<br />

team on 0115 8599 209 or email safeandsound@<br />

Age UK Nottingham & Nottinghamshire provides<br />

a wide range of services for older people from all<br />

communities and backgrounds in Nottingham and<br />

Nottinghamshire. Find out more at Welcome to Age<br />
