IN response to your article about the elderly couple from Holgate who recently suffered a nasty break-in and burglary (March 25), I wish to register my thanks to the council's social services, Age Concern, Victim Support and local residents who gave much needed, and practical, help.
It's good to know that for every evil person who will stoop to these depths and steal money from two disabled elderly people, there are at least a dozen people in our wonderful city, who are prepared to help people in these circumstances.
Coun Liz Edge,
Parkside Close,
Holgate,
York.
