SDLP question UK Govt's handling of Covid-19 crisis as vulnerable targeted in Church collection scam

SDLP leader Colum Eastwood said recent reports over the UK Government’s handling of Covid-19 raise “very serious questions”.

Scammers are targeting vulnerable people in the North by offering to collect church envelopes containing money, the Catholic Church has warned.

The Diocese of Down and Connor said it has become aware of the fraudulent scam targeting vulnerable people within its parishes.
