Description
Hi, I’m the owner of these tools. I was walking home from a weekend DIY job near the Coventry Transport Museum on Millennium Place around 4:15 pm last Sunday when I noticed my hand tools were missing from my tote. The set lives in a blue canvas roll and includes a hammer, pliers, and a small screwdriver bit set. I’m anxious about them turning up because I need them for a deadline this week and I rely on them for small repairs around the flat. If someone finds them, please contact me through the site so we can arrange a safe handover near the station or at the museum.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
