Ex gone awol

So my ex hasn't been in contact with me or ds or dd since 30 Aug. I've tried ringing and texting him. The messages are delivered but remain unread. Dd turned 21 last week. Nothing from him no text or phone call. He lives in Ireland and ds is going over on sat - he is staying with my parents and wanted to meet his dad but ex won't answer his calls or texts. I dunno what else I can do. Could I ask the police to do a wellness check? I don't have any of his friends or family's phone numbers any more. Am actually getting worried. He has a habit of ignoring me but he usually responds to the kids .

Yeh it's just hard to watch my ds being disappointed . He hasn't seen him in more than a year and this trip was ostensibly to see his dad even though my parents will be delighted to see him. Hard to watch . Plus I'm so broke . I know that's a separate issue but he hasn't given me any money for a few months. I realize I was relying on it too much.

Why bother? He's clearly checked out and can't be arsed. He's not going to be a benefit to his kids.
