Beware Doorstep Traders

Police have been alerted to unscrupulous doorstep traders that have recently conducted work for an elderly Gentleman in the Kendal area, charged him an excessive amount and have taken to revisit the gent asking for more work, please use caution with doorstep traders, far better to use known/recommended traders, please also be aware for elderly/ vulnerable residents in your area.

Any doubts or suspicions about doorstep traders call 101 or contact trading standards noting registrations of any vehicles being used.
