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:

“We would be really grateful if anyone could please help us with the short term use of a van until we can secure a long term replacement. Alternatively, we would appreciate donations to help us cover the costs of hiring one.”
