Partnerships

Recently, with The Mirror, we launched a vital petition demanding a government plan to prevent people from going missing and to guarantee support for those who go missing and those who are found. Urgent change is needed, and we want to ensure that missing people do not fall through the gaps and get the support they need at the right time.

This campaign launched on Mother’s Day, and we brought together a group of mums to share their experience of their child going missing.

More than 17,000 people have added their names to our petition. Will you add yours? Click the button below.

This year, we partnered with Southeastern Railway to support those in crisis on the railway this summer. 

Every day, Missing People receives three calls from people in distress at stations or on trains – that’s over 1000 people a year. This partnership will enable us to help vulnerable people reach safety at a crucial moment, while also building awareness among staff and the public.  

This partnership combines two key elements: specialist training for Southeastern Railway staff, and an awareness campaign through adverts in and around stations, signposting people to support.  

In May, we kicked off our fourth New Starter Challenge with our long-standing corporate partner, CIL Management Consultants. The challenge combines two elements: 

• A strategic question posed by Missing People team heads. 

• A fundraising challenge, with each team given £300 seed funding to raise as much as possible. 

CIL has partnered with us since 2015 and has raised over £140,000, making a huge difference to those affected by a disappearance. The challenge is not only a great way to support the charity — it’s also a fantastic environment for teamwork, learning, and building connections across cohorts and roles.
