Following the recent vehicle theft in Leuchars on 1 July 2026, please see the attached letter from Police Scotland. 

In addition, Leuchars Station would like to reassure our families who live in SFA that QRF patrols will have an increased presence around SFA during the evening and overnight periods, and as an added precaution, families may also wish to look into purchasing Faraday pouches or boxes (or alternatives) for their vehicle keys. 

We encourage everyone to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity directly to Police Scotland.

South West: MoneyHelper financial wellbeing network - Summer edition

 

In a little under a month, School’s out for Summer! However, for the majority of you parents, fosterers, and carers across the South West it is likely you are starting to think about the impending Summer holidays and how much that is going to cost. Many parents feel "left in limbo" over the Summer. Not everyone has Grandparents or family who might be able to step in and support your needs. Some people will work overtime to save for the Summer months and the children's many activities.

But this can bring a lot of pressure because you don't want them missing out on anything that everybody else is doing. It's things like that you need to think about when it comes to money and cost of living challenges. This month's update is all about Summer financial wellbeing support and some ideas to ease the pressure a little.
