Officers are appealing for information as they continue to investigate a burglary at a charity shop in Poole.

Between 5.30pm on Sunday 20 August 2023 and 8.50am on Monday 21 August 2023 a burglary occurred at the Dogs Trust store in the High Street.

The glass to the front entrance was smashed and a number of vintage coins were stolen from a display, as well as more than £1,000 in cash.

An attempted break-in was also reported at the nearby Age UK charity shop, which is believed to involve the same offender.

Police Constable Islay Feltham, of Dorset Police, said: “This burglary has understandably had a distressing impact on the community and the staff at the Dogs Trust.

“We are continuing to explore a number of lines of enquiry in relation to this incident and I am now in a position to appeal to the public for anyone who witnessed any suspicious activity in the area, or who has come across any vintage coins being offered for sale in suspicious circumstances, to please contact us.”
