THE owners of a cafe which has been targeted by burglars have been left sickened as they had to cancel meetings for children with disabilities and a men's mental health support group. 

Momo's cafe was broken into overnight with offenders having smashed their way in.

Damage was caused to the premises, with a window having been put through.  

The owners say that the burglars stole cash amounting to a few hundred pounds from the premises, an iPad with a talking menu and a laptop.

The cafe has had to cancel its Monday Club meeting for children with disabilities and also a Men Helping Men mental health support group event which was due to take place.

Claire Rigby, who is co-owner of Momo's alongside Colin Clemmitt, said: "Monday Club is cancelled so this will impact the kids who come every single week.

"It’s for kids that have disabilities and sensory issues, so upsetting their routine will have an impact on their whole week as Monday Club is set in stone.

"And Men helping Men, a mental health peer-to-peer support group, will be cancelled too, it’s knocked my business partner sick with what has happened."

Claire added that Momo's is aiming to reopen again as normal on Tuesday.
