Text Box: Bogus charity collectors - Strabane 
Police in Strabane are asking householders to be vigilant following a number of reports of bogus charity collectors in the area over the last week. 

The message is simple – if you are unsure about anyone calling to your home then ask him or her for identification. A person calling from a reputable company or organisation will be only too happy to provide this. If you are still not convinced telephone the company directly and ask them to verify the information.
Merry Christmas
