This policy has been designed to ensure the secure handling, storage and processing of lost and found property at York City FC fixtures at LNER Community Stadium. The policy aims to ensure that lost property is held safely and reunited with the owner wherever possible and when not possible that the property is disposed of in a fair manner. Property is defined in terms of its classification and value and treated appropriately, as detailed in the guidelines and definitions below.
Property is classified as follows:
Lost property: an item which the owner/keeper has lost without knowing where but wishes to recover it.
Mislaid property: an item which the owner has inadvertently left in a location and wishes to recover it.
Found property: an item not belonging to the finder that has either been lost or mislaid by the owner, or can be treated as abandoned property.
If property is found:
Any and all items of property are to be handed in to the York City FC office at their earliest convenience. Items will be logged centrally by club staff to provide an accurate record of current lost property.
Items of property will be kept for 30 days after the final home match of the playing season in which they are found. Should any item not be claimed by this stage, it will be disposed of.
If property is lost: Please complete this form to let us know the details of the item(s) you have lost so that we can review the central log and contact you if the item(s) has been handed in.
