The Department of Culture Media & Sport provided funding to Aberdeenshire Trading Standards for call blockers to tackle the issue of nuisance calls.
There is a limited supply available for vulnerable people (such as people with dementia) who are receiving unwanted calls.
To find out if you (or someone you know) is eligible for a free call blocker to be fitted please contact trading standards: call 01467 537222 or email trading.standards@aberdeenshire.gov.uk. They will fit them for free.
