Bogus collectors steal clothes for charity

Bogus collectors in Beeton are stealing clothes donated to a charity.

Yesterday 25 plastic charity bags were stolen from streets in Dalton.

Amanda Powney, secretary of the Beeton branch of Macmillan Cancer Support, said: “This is a particularly mean type of theft that has a direct impact on the money we raise to fund our specialist nurses.”

The official Macmillan van used for pickups has a side-logo printed in dark green and lime.

Anyone with information should contact 08448732199.
