A charity is calling for support after its offices were ransacked by thieves.
Dereham Meeting Point is a social hub for people aged over 55 or those with a disability, and holds regular sessions where people can meet and socialise.
Over the weekend burglars found their way into the building, on Saint Withburga Lane, and used an iron bar to pry open doors and smash their way into the cash till.
They made off with more than £200 in cash as well as taking numerous raffle prizes, including bottles of whisky, which are used to raise vital funds for the charity.
Barbara D'Arts, chairman of Dereham Meeting Point, said: 'It is very disappointing. We are really annoyed and just wondering why people do such things. A lot of the prizes have been given by members, so it is upsetting for them.
'If anyone has any unwanted gifts please help us replace the prizes we have lost.'
The centre was closed yesterday while investigations were under way.
Anyone able to support the charity with donations or raffle prizes should call 01362 698866.
