Thieves raided a collection box and stole the belongings of volunteers after breaking into a York charity shop.
The People's Dispensary For Sick Animals (PDSA) shop, in Goodramgate, York, was broken into some time between 5pm on Tuesday and 8.10am yesterday, after thieves broke both locks on the front door.
Debra Murray, PDSA shop manager, said: "The thieves emptied the charity collection box and the volunteers' lockers. Volunteers give their time freely and it's disgusting that their personal belongings can be tampered with in this manner."
The incident has been reported to the police.
The PDSA is a veterinary charity which carried out 1.3 million free treatments on sick and injured pets last year alone.
