Vandals have destroyed a caravan lent to a charitable organisation in Marlow, which used it to help it conduct its business.
St John Ambulance Service was “completely dismayed” to find the vehicle had been turned into a pile of ash by arsonists on Wednesday (September 8th).
According to Bucks Free Press, the mobile home had been lent to the group by a kindly local resident after its own caravan was stolen in November 2009.
Aside from the caravan, the theft cost the service £1,500 in lost equipment, although the replacement vehicle had yet to be kitted out before the blaze.
“Obviously it means a lot of work we will have to do and the insurance we have to get for our building and the time and aggravation it will cause,” divisional officer Graham Innes told the newspaper.
“It’s just sheer vandalism and we’ll be spending time dealing with this rather than what we need to do.”
In other news, the Camping and Caravanning Club has promoted its finance manager to the post of finance director.
