West Mercia Police is to run a firearm surrender scheme in a bid to prevent unwanted guns and ammunition falling into the wrong hands.
The force is taking part in a national surrender scheme from Saturday and bosses are urging people to hand in their weapons and ammunition to help make the streets safer across South Shropshire and North Herefordshire.
The surrender scheme will run from this Saturday until Sunday, August 4.
During that time members of the public can dispose of their firearms and will not face prosecution for illegal possession.
