Do 'cold callers' leave you feeling cold?
Councillor Fred Heyworth and County Councillor Anne Brown have been very impressed with the 'No Cold Calling' Zones that have been introduced in some areas in Lancashire.
These are groups of homes where people agree that they do not wish to be approached on their door step by people selling things. This can give confidence and peace of mind to the vulnerable and people living alone.
There is an area in the vicinity of Fox Lane and Welsby Road where it is believed that such a zone could prove useful. A meeting is to be organized to try to get one set up.
Further details to follow.
Also see this article in the Lancashire Evening Post which refers to the operation of such areas in locations in other parts of Lancashire.
