A health and beauty business in Harrogate is counting the cost of the damage after its premises were attacked by a vandal.
The Wellness Clinic on Raglan Street sustained hundreds of pounds’ worth of damage, with windows smashed, a sign broken, furniture damaged and five large outdoor terracotta plant-pots ruined, destroying the plants.

The Wellness Clinic provides a range of services at its Raglan Street premises.
In a post on social media, the clinic said:
“Luckily no one was physically hurt, but we are devastated.
“We are, of course, insured but when the excess is £750-plus, it doesn’t make sense to make a claim.
“We have worked incredibly hard to create a beautiful and safe clinic that our professionals work from. To see that your business has been targeted by a reckless individual for a couple minutes of adrenaline is incredibly upsetting.”

Police are using CCTV footage to try to identify the suspect, who caused hundreds of pounds’ worth of damage.
The Wellness Clinic provides a range of services, including physiotherapy, beauty therapies, electrolysis, mindfulness and even private midwifery.
The business is still open and operating, and is now working with North Yorkshire Police to create still images from CCTV footage of the suspect, who struck on New Year’s Day.
According to the clinic, the suspect was described as female, wearing grey jogging bottoms, a dark-coloured top and no shoes.
