Thieves got away with about 50 Nordland Fir cut Christmas trees after forcing entry to a compound on the Longshaw Estate last week.

The thefts have caused officers from the Hathersage Safer Neighbourhood Team to warn businesses and encourage them to be ‘mindful of where they store their stock’ to help protect it from thieves.
