Found a lost camera

The Camera has been in work safe since beginning of summer, I’ve finally turned it on to see if I could find the owner I’ve found the name and surname of a few people one being a baby/ toddler and the other two grandparents. I’ve also got two car regestrations and the hospital where the child was born. is there anyway I can trace the owners I’ve tried facebooking the names but nothing has come up it’s obviously the grandparents camera. It’s full of holiday snaps to I could see the school badge but couldn’t even see the name just the logo it had a red jumper Union Jack and a rocket on it was hoping to ring the school with names of the children and posting it to them

Hand it into the police. If there are car registrations they can trace through that. The camera might also have been reported lost to them

Speak to PALS at the hospital and see if they can pass it back to the family. We had a lost camera at work (within a hospital), were able to zoom in on a name and, track the family down and return their camera.

Hand it into the police.

Do they still do lost property ?

Our force certainly does 😊

Share some of the photos on local FB pages. Not the car reg or children ones. Include a description of the uniform and the names you have worked out, including hospital name. Try and make it go viral. People in my local groups are always sharing this sort of thing.

There's also this website which has been quite successful.

There's an interesting back story to its creation too Smile

Put it on Lostbox on Facebook. They have a great record for reuniting things.
