Vulnerable man with Bristol links not seen for nearly three weeks

A renewed appeal to locate a missing 31-year-old vulnerable man has been issued as police are becoming increasingly concerned for his welfare. Matthew was last seen at around 1.15pm on Wednesday May 10 leaving an address in Gloucester.

Matthew has links to Cheltenham, Bath and Bristol, and he may have travelled via public transport as enquiries show that he was in the area of Cheltenham Spa railway station on May 10. It is believed that he has travelled to Bath, and enquiries suggest he was in the area of Oldfield Park earlier today, Monday May 29.

Matthew’s lack of contact with people he knows is out of character, police said. There have been no confirmed sightings of him since a missing person appeal was issued by police 10 days ago (May 19).

Inspector Ross Fidoe said: "We're worried about Matthew because he is vulnerable, and we believe he doesn't have access to his prescribed medication and his phone is turned off.

"We need to find him to ensure he's ok, and therefore we're urging anyone who has information on Matthew's whereabouts to contact police."

Matthew is described as being white, is around 5ft 11ins to 6ft tall, of a medium build and has brown collar length hair with a beard.

When last seen he was wearing a black jacket with patterned sleeves, black hoodie, black jeans and black trainers. He was carrying a black rucksack and may also have a patterned scarf and black woolly hat in his possession.

Anyone who has seen Matthew, or knows of his whereabouts, is asked to call police on 101 quoting incident 327 of 10 May. Dial 999 if he is present at the time.
