The family of a man missing for almost two years have issued a fresh appeal as they face a second christmas without him.
Jamie Moreno left his home in the Roath, Cardiff, around lunchtime on Monday 23 March 2020 and was last seen by a friend in Llanedeyrn later that afternoon.
It is believed that Jamie, who is a dad to two daughters - Tia and Georgia - left his home in The Parade sometime after 1.15pm and was seen by a friend at about 2.45pm later that day on Llanedeyrn Road.

CCTV from a nearby school confirms this as the last sighting of him.
South Wales Police say that Jamie took his phone and wallet with him, but his bank cards haven’t been used since that day which is a cause for concern.
Jamie is described as being approximately 5ft 9in and usually wears a beanie hat. He may also have had a beard at the time he went missing.
His family say he has a distinctive walk that would be recognised by those who knew him.
Ina new appeal issued on Thursday, South Wales Police Missing Persons Investigator Pc Andy Ryan said: “This is particularly difficult time for Jamie’s family who have never given up hope finding him.
“Like us, they continue to appeal for information and earlier this week we visited pubs and restaurants in Llanederyn, Pentwyn and Pontprennua raising awareness and displayed posters appealing for information.”
Speaking to WalesOnline on the one year anniversary of his dissappearance, daughter Tia Moreno Rees, said on behalf of the family: "We just want dad to know that we're not angry with him at all we just want him back safe with us.
"The last year has been difficult not knowing what's happened and we just want to be able to move forward.
"If he's out there I just want him to know that we miss him and we love him and we just want him home with us."
If you have seen Jamie, or if you know where he is, please contact South Wales Police quoting reference number 2000102586
