Yorkshire children's hospice 'heartbroken' after van stolen
Martin House Children's Hospice says it's 'heartbroken' after thieves stole a van from its warehouse in Thorp Arch.
The hospice, which is based in Boston Spa and has a charity shop in Harrogate, provides care and support for children and young people with life-limiting conditions.
It tweeted today that without the van it can’t collect donations. In November alone the charity raised over £167,000.
The van is a white Mercedes and its registration number is KP14 WKD.
The hospice has issued an appeal asking anyone who might be able to lend them a van until they buy a replacement, or for donations that can cover the costs of hiring one.
It said:
To donate call 01937 844569 or email getinvolved@martinhouse.org.uk
