Police requests for appeals

Missing People is currently unable to process any Referrals at the moment. This is likely to continue throughout this week. Please check the website for updates. We apologise for any inconvenience.

We can tailor-make an appeal for a missing person based on their circumstances, risk and how long they have been missing.

We can circulate covert briefings to our special Safeguarding Briefing Network partners local to where the person went missing and/or areas with which the person has connections.

In addition, we can launch wide-scale publicity. We have thousands of poster partners across the UK and appeal slots in widely read publications.  We partner with organisations and businesses some of whom are listed below.  And, we can post appeals on our website, Facebook page and X feed.

We can send a TextSafe®, which is a text message sent to their mobile phone explaining how they can get in touch with us for free and in confidence.
