A local man has launched a campaign tio prevent deaths from cold weather.

Jason Bullock, of Tamworth Road, was shocked to learn that around 500 people die of cold each year in the county. In a bid to help out this winter he has set up Warming Herts, collecting unwanted clothes and blankets.
Collection points will be set up at local Sainsbury's stores from tomorrow, with Jason appealing for any unwanted items of clothing. He will be at Sainsbury's Hertford store tomorrow (Sunday 29th) and their Hoddesdon store on Monday (30th).
