ELDERLY people can pick up a calendar reminding them to be vigilant about bogus callers. Doorstep conmen are a growing problem in Swindon.

Callers pretend to be workmen or officials and, once indoors, will steal money or property.

Now Wiltshire Age Concern and the police have produced a calendar which pensioners can hang by the door to remind them to ask for ID and call the company to double check.
