A BABY called Harry was at the centre of a door-to-door inquiry as police hunted the mum who abandoned him.

And police appealed to the mother: "Please come forward - we won't prosecute you".

The hours old baby was left in a carrier bag in the foyer of Great Harwood health centre. Officers with loudhailers drove around the town to try to track down the mother.
