NEW cold calling control zones have been set up in Heworth.
The zones - in Whitby Avenue and Woodlands Grove - have been set up with local ward committee funding to protect residents from doorstep crime, and were requested by residents.
Cllr Nigel Ayre, ward councillor for Heworth Without, said: "This is just one example of where ward committee funding has been used to benefit the local community. If residents have any other ideas of how the funding can be used, then I would urge them to get in contact with me."
