WWF/Heritage Park School

While cooking dinner tonight I answered the doorbell. A young gentleman said he was collecting for WWF/Heritage Park school; only he didn’t know the name of the school and just described it as ‘the school up the road’.



He asked for donations for a tree planting scheme, but was unable to supply any details or any contacts at the school.

I rang the Police on 101 and advised them.

Some time later the Police called back and explained he was legitimate.

The call taker and I agreed it would have been a simple courtesy to advise your local Neighbourhood Watch about this; not to mention saving Police time!


I’ll let you decide if you want to give your bank details or any monies to someone at your doorstep with this amount of information; you probably know what I decided!.......................
