GLOUCESTERSHIRE Police are appealing for witnesses after a front door of a cancer charity shop was smashed open - causing damage worth the equivalent to a day's cancer treatment.

The offender(s) broke into the Sue Ryder Shop, Edinburgh Place, Cheltenham sometime between 5pm on Saturday, February 21 and 10.40am on Sunday, February 22.

A PlayStation was taken from the window display, but the damage to the glass door (which runs into hundreds of pounds) is the cost equivalent of a day’s palliative nursing at their hospice.

Police would like to hear from anyone who saw anything suspicious in the area between the given dates and times, they are asked to contact the police via 101.
