The Ecology Centre in Fife is looking for donations after an incident at the weekend

A small charity is reeling after being targeted by sick vandals.

At the weekend, a window was broken and polytunnels slashed at the Ecology Centre in Kinghorn, Fife.

The vandals are also said to have engaged in anti-social behaviour in a bird hide at the centre, which manages the Kinghorn Loch site for community use.

The charity has now asked supporters to consider making a donation, as it looks to continue to ensure the area is a safe environment for the community.

A statement from the Ecology Centre said: “As a small charity we can’t stress enough that we don’t have funds to continually replace and repair items. This is not the first instance of vandalism and as a result of this rise in antisocial behaviour we applied for funding for CCTV and were fortunate to get some.

“The CCTV was installed last week so we have footage of who did this and the police are now involved. The CCTV is all over the site so we can see and record any anti-social activity at all times.”
