A charity shop in the Northern Quarter has issued an appeal after £500 was stolen from a safe following a break-in last night (March 22). The Manchester and Salford RSPCA branch charity shop on Oak Street had its doors kicked in and a window smashed.
Thieves took a large amount of cash from a secure locker in a store room. Scott Sterland, a manager of the shop said: “They got in and smashed a window, they forced their way into the lockers and stolen about £500 in cash.
“A forensic team is coming down, which is very fun, we’re looking a re-uptake in good quality donations and we’re hoping to make some of the money back. It’s taken a bit of momentum out, the wind out the sails.
