You and Yours Fraud Series, Accessible holidays, Flavoured wines

Fraud Series day 1: The man defrauded of his savings by investment criminals, who was then persuaded to send more money abroad. Plus accessible holidays.

The first instalment of a week long series looking at the extent of fraud in the UK, and why it is so difficult to stop. We hear from the relative of an elderly man who was defrauded of his savings by cold-calling investment criminals and then persuaded to send more money abroad. Winifred Robinson speaks to Action Fraud about what it is doing to help and protect victims from being fleeced of their savings over the phone, the internet and on their doorsteps.

Plus the disabled woman challenging Visit England to improve accessibility at tourist destinations.
