The Radmoor Road incident happened sometime between 10.55am and 12.45pm on Tuesday July 17, 2007 when thieves broke into the property and took cash that had been saved to pay various household bills and a number of items of jewellery.
Among the items taken were a gold wedding band with a leaf design, a gold ring with three diamonds, a solitaire engagement ring and a gold, plain wedding band with no engraving.
PC Anthony Wright from Loughborough LPU said: "Many of these rings were inherited and one was the victims mothers wedding ring and of huge sentimental value. Were therefore obviously keen to find the person or people responsible and return the stolen jewellery.
"Were asking people who may have been in and around Radmoor Road last Tuesday to think back and see if they remember anything that might be linked to this burglary.
"Did you witness any suspicious activity? Did you see and vehicles or people that seemed out of place?
"Wed also ask people to be alert to anyone selling similar items of jewellery, particularly jewellers or second hand shops. Any information you can give us could be important to the investigation so please do get in touch."

The man claimed to have lost the receipt for the work he had done previously and when inside the property, a second man knocked at the door claiming to be his friend. Whilst the victim was distracted by the second man, the first man ran from the property with the victims navy blue leather handbag, which contained a quantity of cash.
A 40-year-old man has been arrested in connection with this incident and is currently on police bail pending further enquiries.
