Police are investigating a series of overnight thefts at Tenby’s Castle Hill area - one including an incident where fundraising money was stolen from the town’s RNLI?lifeboat station.

At approximately 2 am on August 10, the RNLI lifeboat station on Castle Hill, was broken into and money taken from the charity donation box.

Sometime overnight the padlock on the charity box for the Shipwrecked Mariners Society on Castle Square was also broken and money taken from within.

Nearby, a window was forced open at the Dennis Café, alongside Castle Beach, and the till discovered missing by the owners.

The till was later found with the money removed.

PC Garland said: “The three incidents are currently being linked. Having to close to deal with the clean-up of this type of incident is difficult for any business but especially so at this time.

“The two charities rely on donations to keep going and being a crew member of the Tenby Lifeboat I know what important work they due for the local community and for visitors who get into difficulty in the sea.

“I would appeal to anyone with any information to come forward and contact police.”
