Mountbatten Isle of Wight have been left counting the costs of a break in and theft at their charity warehouse in Newport overnight.
Persons unknown smashed a window to gain access to the building on Donor Lane sometime between close of business on Friday and opening this morning (Saturday).
It’s said that a till – which was empty – has been stolen, alongside pieces of computer equipment. The phone lines have also been cut.
Mountbatten say that the situation is frustrating and sad and they simply have ‘no words’. Hampshire Constabulary have been informed.
Anyone with information can inform Police by calling 101. Information can be given anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.





























































































There really are some absolute low life’s walking this island!
Most don’t walk, they drive BMW’s whilst their kids are up the food bank.
They Play the system, often grow dope and sell giving a higher income than most working, have scattered ‘muvers’ and children costing us all a fortune in rent, child tax credits, child allowance and all paid for council tax and are still vile to society.
What kind of sad creatures steal from a charity?
Someone knows who did this. Burglary is always unacceptable.
This act descends to an all time low , this is so disheartening for those who give their time to this charity.
Report them and shame them. I hope they are proud of themselves.
Scum no heart who ever did this
Stealing from the charity which provides wonderful and compassionate end of life care to many on this island takes the level these scum will stoop to to unbelievable levels, someone knows who these filth are and should report them to the police.
Why the fuc would anyone still from these charity boxes cut there bloody hands off
These are the same people you all keep donating food, clothes, holidays and money to, but that’s ok as long as they don’t starve or go without.
They break in somewhere, steal, vandalize or beat someone up and suddenly they’re scum.
When will you learn.
How refreshing to read someone else can SEE this too.
Sadly many on here are taken in by such as the BBC always showing the charity cases as ‘victims’ when, in reality OFTEN not always but OFTEN they are the ’cause’ of misery.
Give NOTHING to these parasitic low life, ungrateful clone creating thieves.
They need forced steralisation to prevent our children suffering ever more worse crimes from this filth.
And a lobotomy mayhelp your brain ease its way into the fact “dd not tar with same brush…. But then your way past help.. A lot of hospice volunteers are” single parents bearing tattoo’s etc et “what do you volunteer for? Apart fro price of biggest” keyboard warrior in the West”?!! After all rather like saying all Island retirees we have “inherited”! Are a, drain on our National health service over here, they did not live here when working, so why bring their aches and pains and “we retirees here for a, quiet life attitude with them” pot kettle and all that! After all only a small % of “inherited retirees think like that, don’t they?.
I agree fully with everything you’re saying Jerry.
Sadly all the do-gooders believe that rewarding these rodents for bad behaviour, breeding and being work shy is the way forward.
Force them into work, sterilize them and then send them off to Africa for a year so they can really find out what hunger, poverty and fighting for survival is all about.
I have no words apart from ABSOLUTE SCUM. UTTERLY DISGRACEFUL.
I THINK THEY WILL BE SENT A STRONGLY WORDED LETTER !!??
One only hopes they suffer a long lonely death.
I agree with you Tony.
.
Wow there is low and this is lower than low , stealing from anyone / anywhere is wrong …..but stealing from a charity that does an amazing job for all that need their care is despicable…pond life scumbags ….
Let’s hope they are caught named and shamed …. and should they ever need help tough shut the door !!!!
Although they are professional and would still care …… that’s the difference between lowlife scumbags and the charity….
Person UNKNOWN will have a common trait. Likely male, tattooed, various ‘kids’ scattered about, all living on benefits, all into drugs, all drive like maniacs, and all going to cost society a fortune before they all to long away deaths, and will have created many many clones to ensure our children suffer the same fate, only with more of them and even more vile than the sperm doner and Muvver’.
That comment makes you no better than the lowlife scum who broke in
Fine for you to call them low life scum though. Jerry goes into accurate detail apart from height, hair and eye colour but he’s low life too.
Have a word with yourself Karl.
Whilst I detest all burglars, I do object to the IW County Depress having an exclusive chat to the Hospice ‘CEO’ (?) about their losses from the sainted local charity. Maybe the self-styled CEO, who is paid more than the chief administrative officer at St Mary’s Hospital, which is why he ditched that job and took this one, and, in benefits, gets a higher take-home pay in real terms than the Prime Minister can tell us about the cancer patients being given test treatment in the say so of his drug sponsors. No. You will get no answer. Lucky if this is broadcast.
I object to your sarcastic description of Mountbatten as a sainted local charity! If you had ever had a loved one cared for there you would know just how vital the work they do is. It’s easy to be a keyboard warrior when you hide behind a self appointed title ‘Lady’ Dunstanding. If you have proof of your accusations regarding the Hospice CEO Nigel Hartley and test treatments on the say so of ‘his’ drug sponsors then come out from behind your keyboard and say so. Otherwise please keep quiet!
I know how hard the actual nursing staff and ancillaries work. They do a sterling job in very demanding circumstances. Trouble is the ‘charity’ is actually a profitable business with managers and the like getting the cream. If you think I will shut up about this then you must be on some of the less well tested drugs the pharmaceutical companies pay The Hospice to push on the sick and vulnerable! Regards.
If you have actual proof of wrongdoing then stop hiding behind a false name and have the courage of your convictions!
Many thanks for the advice, no matter how naive. Regards, Lady Dunstanding.
As I suspected an ill informed keyboard warrior!
