Last week, my disabled husband bought me a garden figurine - a naked angel, in a kneeling position with her arms crossed over her forehead - as a gift to put in our communal garden at 22 Pashley Court, Surrey Street, Shoreham-by-Sea.

It cost £39, is about 22 inches in height, white and very heavy, being solid concrete.

This figurine was stolen last Friday (May 3) night or the early hours of Saturday morning.

I would dearly like it back for sentimental reasons and am very upset by its loss after such a short time.

The police have been contacted but if whoever took it returns it intact, no further action will be taken.

If you have any information, please call me on 01273 462191.
