Date published: 06 July 2023


Police have renewed their appeal to find missing David from Oldham.

David (79) was last seen on Edgemoor Close in Oldham at around 9:30am on Monday (July 3).

He requires medication which we do not believe he has taken with him.

David is a white British male, 5’ 10’’, medium-slim build, grey hair - mainly bald, with grey facial hair / goatee.

He was last seen wearing a light-coloured baseball cap, white-grey long-sleeved t-shirt, black sleeveless gillet body warmer with pockets on the front (all pictured), blue trainers and was carrying a blue backpack.

Police and his family are becoming increasingly concerned about him and want to make sure he is found safe and well.

Anyone with information about David’s whereabouts is asked to contact police on 101 quoting log 3429 of 3/7/23.

Always call 999 in an emergency.
