Rhymney Library is appealing for help after its building was vandalised while it undergoes a £400k refurbishment.

The library, which was set to reopen in September after closing in March 2023 to refurbish, was vandalised towards the end of July, according to a spokesperson.

They added: “As you can imagine this is really disappointing. We are in the middle of a refurbishment designed to offer residents a fantastic new hub library and we’re working hard to make this site available as soon as we can.”

Anyone with information can contact Gwent Police on 101 or through direct message on Facebook or Twitter, quoting log reference 2300246141.
