Good morning everyone,
Sadly, after more than 5 years without incident, the inevitable has happened: we had a break-in at our willenhall shop last night around 5:50pm just 50 minutes after closing.
The intruders smashed through our roller shutter, causing damage, forced entry, and took the till (which had only minimal change inside, as we never keep cash on the premises overnight).
As a small business, the cost of repairing the shutter and replacing the till is a real hit we could have done without—but thankfully, it could have been far worse. No stock was taken, and we’re grateful for that.
We’re sharing this as an awareness post to alert other local businesses in the area. Please stay vigilant: check your shutters, alarms, and security routines, especially right after closing.
If you’ve got any tips, recent suspicious activity in the neighbourhood, or CCTV footage that might help, we’d really appreciate you getting in touch.
We’re open as normal today—we won’t let this beat us! 💪
Thanks for reading, sharing this post, and supporting small businesses. Your awareness could make a big difference to someone else.
Stay safe out there. 😊
