(name changed for obvious reasons) Posted here for most traffic

Please can you help me find my friend Jonny (in the picture). He left home in Stratford at 5am Monday morning with no phone and no keys and hasn't been seen or heard from since. The police are aware but consider him low risk so haven't started looking at CCTV or bank accounts. We have tried every place we can think of, plus all his friends are now sharing this on Facebook and Twitter - I'm just hoping the power of Mumsnet will help.

He's 45, about 5'3". He doesn't have his passport, we have called all the local hospitals and been to his regular haunts. He doesn't share finances with anyone so we can't see if there has activity on his bank account - we don't think he has seen his emails or his facebook as he doesn't have his computer with him either.

This is really really out of character for him, so we are all desperately worried. If you have seen him please contact me directly, or call 101 and ask for Missing Persons.

I'm going to ask nicely that people don't speculate as to why he might have gone, as I won’t answer. When he comes back (please anyone who might be listening) I think he would rather we hadn't shared his whole life on the Internet.

Please help me find my friend

No further news from Facebook:

I have Tweeted TV news outlets, London newspaper outlets - as others have done - and there has been no further media attention at all from about 3pm on 17th June.

Well - the good news, if it can be called that, is that this now has extensive coverage online.

OP - fingers crossed.

Bannerstaying · 18/06/2015 07:00

Is there any other area you think of that he might go to? I only ask as I dont live near London or Stratford but trying to plant his image in mind just in case. Hope he is found very soon.

PleaseHelpMeFindMyFriend · 18/06/2015 07:05

There's now a missing persons poster - if you can print it and put it up somewhere that would be wonderful.

I work about 15mins from Stratford so will put a poster up...hopefully someone will see it and recognise him....would there be anywhere else he would possibly go

ollieplimsoles · 18/06/2015 07:55

Still no sign of this man :(

Ive got a load of friends in Stratford, have shared and they are printing the poster. I really hope someone has seen him.

PleaseHelpMeFindMyFriend · 18/06/2015 08:12

If you work near the river or canals round there if had gone for a walk that might be one of his places. The more people who can look the better.

And if anyone works in a hospital please can you check a&e etc - I know there's patient privacy issues but if you can show the staff the poster they can call the police even if they can't talk to you!
