Police have issued an urgent appeal for information as concerns grow for the welfare of Richard, a 29-year-old man who has been reported missing.

Richard was last seen in the Southwark area between 07:00 and 08:00 on Thursday, 20 February. Authorities believe he may have since traveled to the Hillingdon area, and efforts are underway to locate him.

In a statement, a Metropolitan Police spokesperson said: “We are growing increasingly concerned for Richard’s welfare and are appealing to the public for any information that may help us locate him safely. If you have seen Richard or have any knowledge of his whereabouts, please get in touch.”

Richard’s description has not been publicly released, but police urge anyone who may have seen someone matching his profile in either Southwark or Hillingdon to come forward.

If you have any information that could assist the investigation, please contact the police referencing CAD1815/20FEB25 by calling 101. In an emergency or if Richard is located, dial 999 immediately.

The public is encouraged to share this appeal on social media to widen the search and help bring Richard home safely.
