A website, HertsReunited, to help reunite members of the public with their lost and stolen property, was launched in January 2015 by the Police and Crime Commissioner for Hertfordshire and Hertfordshire Constabulary.
The website features photos of found and recovered items, as well as a facility for people to report their lost property.
The Police and Crime Commissioner, David Lloyd, said: “I asked for HertsReunited to be created in order to make it possible for people in Hertfordshire to find their lost or stolen property much more easily.
“If someone has had something stolen – or they want to report a lost possession or something they have found – then this website is a one-stop-shop to help reunite them with their property.
“Although crime is low in the county, being the victim of a burglary, robbery or theft – or even just losing a valued possession by mistake – can be a very distressing experience.
“I pledged in my Police and Crime Plan for Hertfordshire that more should be done to ensure that lost or stolen property is reunited with its rightful owners. HertsReunited is here to help meet this aim.”
Items will be advertised on the website by Hertfordshire Constabulary for around 30 days or an appropriate period until the true owner is identified.
