A two-day event aimed at reuniting victims of crime with their stolen belongings is taking place.

The BeSAFE event will be held in March and hopes to return stolen property to their rightful owners.

Police believe the items were stolen in Hammersmith and Fulham and surrounding boroughs, including Hounslow , Kensington and Chelsea, Ealing and Wandsworth.

It follows the recovery of "a lot of stolen property" found in the Shepherd's Bush area before Christmas, which police believe are the proceeds of burglary, robbery and theft from motor vehicle offences.

On display will be well over 100 items which police are hoping to return to victims, including distinctive jewellery - some of which may be antique and of sentimental value - watches, electronic items such as phones and computers, high value handbags and upmarket pens.

Those looking to reclaim stolen goods must have reported the crime and provide proof of ownership.

DC Paul Matthews, from Hammersmith and Fulham Police , said: "If you have been the victim of crime in 2017, I would urge you to spare a moment to pop down and see what we have recovered.

"We believe the items to have been taken from burglaries and car break in’s . A lot of it is quite distinctive and I’m sure of great sentimental value.

"It would mean so much to me and my colleagues if we could give these items back.

"I would encourage people to bring identification, proof of ownership and crime numbers if they know them”.
