Surrey peeps watch out for the scum bag tack Thieves - may be gypsies as taking feed & bedding & lots been in area due to Epsom Derby!

3 yards on Chalk Lane - Epsom Downs broken into last night - mainly rugs stolen, even old riding boots, Couple of saddles!

Also feed at a yard in Ockham on tuesday night!

So all be aware! If you are offered any used tack report to police : )

Thankfully all horses ok!
 
Mine :( I'm at The Durdans (the grass livery bit). They took rugs, feed, bedding, boots. Luckily we don't leave too much there, but still lost a fair bit!
 
Last night another yard in Surrey targeted woodlands court in Stoke D'a / Cobham borders! They took bute, rugs and even old head collars - its just awful so I have had confirmation from fellow Bookham Riding Club members they have attempted in Claygate but Interupted! Epsom, Cobham & Effingham yards hit & also Banstead. : ( sad times x
 
Our yard (Stoke D'Abernon) had lots of medication stolen including Danilon and Finadyne and several quite old non-leather headcollars, a stallion headcollar, old wellies (?!) but they left some other items such as newish horse boots. Another part of the yard was broken into and the items were found in a pile clearly ready to be moved so I guess they were disturbed. Would be useful to hear of any other yards that have been done or of any 'sightings'. We are hoping to get the local paper to cover this.
 
High Road Chipstead Surrey just had 4 police alerts. Break ins to tack room in one property, a farm ( where farmer gave chase vehicle found abandoned in South Godstone) where a kitten was taken, diesel from a tank in a field so all around this area.
 
Sue B Just had police alerts texted through today but 3 events happened overnight on 12 to 13 June and one on 16 June
 
No, just the top yard, they have proper security down at the bottom so they'd have to be a lot smarter! I keep discovering things that have gone, it's very annoying. Let's hope my car doesn't get done now, as it's very full!!
