MEMBERS of an Ayr community group were given an informative talk by police earlier this week.

The force's South Ayrshire prevention and intervention officer was invited to attend the Happy Mondays group at Lochside Community Centre to host a fraud and scam awareness session.

A variety of scams were highlighted and positive discussions surrounding the groups experiences and what preventative measures existed were had.
