A housing association has issued a warning for vulnerable residents amid claims a company operating in the area is using a "very similar" name and logo.

Red Kite Community Housing has urged residents in High Wycombe and surrounding areas to "stay alert" after they were made aware of someone using a company name and logo that bears similarities to their own.

Taking to social media, the housing association said all their staff and contractors carry ID and they never ask for cash for any jobs.

They said: "[We] would never come to your house unannounced to carry out work.

"If you are at all suspicious then we welcome you to call us to check if it is legitimate."
