SCAM ALERT

To all of our followers please be vigilant. We have been made aware of a scam that is currently taking place where the caller purports to be from BT.

You will be told that there is a fault on the BT lines locally and that you need to download an App in order to allow them to rectify the fault. The App, if downloaded, will allow the scammer to take control of your telephone including any personal and financial information. This morning we became aware of a local lady who was scammed out of almost £2,000.

Thankfully, after calls to Report Fraud and her bank, she has been reimbursed in full however this has caused her a great deal of distress.

11/04/2026

IMPORTANT UPDATE:
Due to unforeseen circumstances we have had to combine the previously advertised two events so all activities will now be provided at The Mechanics Institute, 45 St. Teilo Street, SA4 8SY.

Join us for Springtime activities on Saturday 11th April 2026. We will be holding an egg hunt and crafty fun at the Mechanics Institute from 11am to 1.30pm, with an Easter Bonnet Parade taking place at 12pm. There will be prizes (book tokens) for the best 3 bonnets (£20/£15/£10) and entrants must be 16 or under and have made the bonnet themselves.
