The mother of a young autistic man who hasn't been seen for almost a week has made an emotional appeal for help to find him.
Tom Craven was reported missing at the weekend after family and friends were unable to get hold of him.
It is understood he was last seen in Stockport on Tuesday - but has not had contact with anyone since.
The 22-year-old's social media has also gone untouched.
His mum Lucy Craven says Tom's disappearance is completely out of character for him.
She is also concerned about his mental health, and says that he is extremely vulnerable.
"He will talk to anyone, thinking they're his friend.
"He is very trusting but he is a very vulnerable young man.
"Tom has autism as well as some issues with his mental health."
Lucy says that she has spoken to her son's friends and no one has seen him since Tuesday last week.
She shared an appeal on Facebook for help to find him, and has also been out searching with family and friends.
"We just want him home," Lucy added.
