Estimates show that 30% of homes in Wales are in fuel poverty - needing to spend 10% or more of their income to heat the home adequately. Lack of access to affordable warmth can result in a cold, damp home which is linked to increased physical and mental health problems and reduced quality of life, as money is spent on heating instead of other essentials, and increasing debt.
To find out more about Flintshire's Affordable Warmth Action Plan, contact Leanna Jones, Home Energy Conservation Officer, 01352 703766

North Wales Police would like to advise residents of Flintshire that yesterday a gold Mercedes car, part reg PG07... has stopped at an address in Flintshire and a male, who appeared to be of Mediterranean origin, has approached an 87 yr old male in their garden asking if he wants to buy some coats. The male has then been taken into the home address, and was shown 10 coats which he paid an inappropriate amount of money for. This male appears to be targeting older people. If this person calls at your address please do not let them in and telephone the North Wales Police Control Room immediately.

| North Wales Police would like to inform residents of South Flintshire and Deeside that there have been incidents where two males have been fraudulently collecting money on behalf of window cleaners. The window cleaners have cleaned the windows earlier in the day but upon returning to collect the money they have found that it has already been collected. If you do not recognise the person collecting the money it would be advisable not to pay them until the window cleaner can verify who they are. Any descriptions of persons or vehicles would be appreciated. We would request that any information be passed to the North Wales Police Control Room and quote incident reference number K072157 |

It’s about bringing people closer together & involving them in local life. A stronger community spirit can grow back as people get to know each other & look out for one another
There is more to neighbourhood watch than protecting homes & property against burglary. By working together, neighbours can help reduce all sorts of local crimes. They can also take action to improve their environment by getting something done about things like vandalism, graffiti, poor lighting and a lack of local amenities.
As well as making the neighbourhood a better place to live & work in, tackling local problems & concerns will help reassure residents and make them less fearful of crime.
Anyone can become a member of a local Neighbourhood Watch Scheme & everyone can play a part in it’s achievements. Each community or neighbourhood – however large or small, can set up a scheme. A scheme can cover one street and encompass as little as 2 or as many as 10 houses.
