I read with some dismay the headline on Monday, July 30, "Bogus Builders con OAP in cash scam."

I would like to bring to your readers' attention the services of Care & Repair Wychavon. The agency was set up over 10 years ago in conjunction with Wychavon District Council. We offer advice on building repairs and adaptations to the elderly and disabled residents of Wychavon who are on low income.

Care & Repair can be contacted on 01386 565000.

Any builder who calls on spec should be treated with caution.

TIM LYCETT,

Building Surveyor,

Care & Repair Wychavon.
