One bench has been stolen from an Isle of Wight park.
A bench was taken from Downside Recreation Ground, with another bench discarded in an adjacent woodland, Newport and Carisbrooke Community Council (NCCC) said.
Two men were seen carrying the brown recycled plastic bench along Godric Road on August 28.
Cllr Joanne Ballington for Pan has said: "NCCC are saddened to see two of the benches funded by them on Pan and Barton have been removed.
"These benches have been very well used for our residents with mobility and other health problems.
"Our residents who are unable to get out much have been using them to enjoy the sunshine.
"I would ask please that they are returned, with no questions asked, to where they were taken from, or to let the police know if anyone has any information about this.”
