Police said a "number of posters" had appeared in Dorking, Leatherhead and Epsom

Posters that appeared in three Surrey towns inviting people aged 16-40 to a private address are being looked into by police.

Mole Valley Beat said it had been made aware on Friday of concerns about "a number of posters" that appeared in Dorking, Leatherhead and Epsom.

In a Facebook post, the force said: "Although the content of the poster does not indicate a crime has been committed, understandably they have caused concern and our team is looking into where the posters have come from."

The posters referred to an event and offered lifts to the address from the train station, police said.

Police thanked those who had reported the posters and said the team was looking into where they came from.

They asked people not to share further images online while enquiries were carried out.
