A post on Recyke--a-bike's Favebook page today sought support to help trace the vehicles, which are vital to the group's work.

It read: "If you see any of the vans please call the police on 101 and let them know.

"Under no circumstances should you approach the person driving it, ensure your own safety at all times.

"Please share this appeal through your own networks. Thank you for your ongoing support."
