Charity Fundraisers in CH64 AND CH65 areas

A resident has recently contacted Cheshire Police following a visit from a Charity Fundraiser who was calling at homes in the CH64 postcode area.

They were unsure if the caller was genuine or not and so they contacted the charity concerned at:

SupporterCare@redcross.org.uk 

The reply they received confirmed that the caller was indeed genuine and the below advice was given :

British Red Cross are working with their Agency Partners APPCO and charity fundraisers are calling at homes in the CH64 and CH65 areas .

Fundraisers should always carry ID badges and wear British Red Cross branded clothing containing the phrase: 

SUPPORTING BRITISH RED CROSS  .

They will be asking residents to support British Red Cross by signing up for donations by direct debit , they should never ask for cash or credit card details .

Cheshire Police always advise residents to be cautious when callers are asking you to subscibe to their causes.

If you are at all unsure , politely refuse the request and never let unknown persons into your home .

Always insist on seeing their identity badge as a genuine caller will not object to this .
