West Yorkshire Trading Standards are offering Free SCAMS AND FRAUDS EDUCATION FOR RESIDENTS workshops via Zoom across West Yorkshire.

With only 5 months left of the project they are hoping to reach as many residents and partners as possible. Workshops can be tailored to the requirements of your service users and are suitable for ages 12+.

Scam attempts are increasing and now due to the Covid19 pandemic they’ve also taken on a new disguise

Orgs can arrange these for the people they are working alongside on the following topics

SCAMS & FRAUDS WORKSHOP 1hr
DOORSTEP CRIME WORKSHOP 1hr
CONSUMER SAVVY WORKSHOP 1hr
SAVVY SAVINGS WORKSHOP 1hr
ENERGY SAVVY WORKSHOP 1hr
SPOTTING IF SOMEONE IS BEING SCAMMED – PARTNER TRAINING 2hrs (can be split into 2 x 1hr sessions)

Workshops and training are currently being delivered live and online and can be booked as a one off or a series. The same workshops can be delivered more than once to different groups and evening workshops can be accommodated. Workshop/ Training settings are informal to encourage conversation and questions between participants.
