A van belonging to a Coalville charitable organisation which was stolen earlier this week has been recovered.

The Mercedes Sprinter Box van was taken from the Marlene Reid Centre (MRC) on Sunday night (17 April).

However, yesterday afternoon (Wednesday 20 April), the Belvoir Road based community centre shared an update on social media that the van had been found.

The post on their Facebook page read: "Thanks to a member of our community and the effort of all of you who shared, liked and commented on our post, . And it is in good condition.

"A massive thank you to our community for your support and to @Escape Coalville for lending us the ambulance to keep our services without any disruptions in the past few days."

MRC is a non-profit organisation which works in collaboration with individuals, families, groups and organisations to encourage, facilitate, manage and deliver, positive community activity in North West Leicestershire and beyond.
