The Welsh government is launching a new strategy to help tackle crime in rural areas.
Elen and John put the value of the goods stolen from them in the past decade in the tens of thousands of pounds.While they got a lot of money back from their insurance, it did not cover the cost of repairs, and said "there was not much police could do".
John said he did not realise until later quite how much it affected him. It made them feel they needed to take extra precautions, double checking gates in the night and installing expensive security measures. Thursday's conference will set out a new strategy to cover six priority groups - bird crime; farm crime; habitats; mammals and European protected species; Welsh police rural supervisors; and mental health and domestic abuse.
