Avon and Somerset Police have renewed an earlier appeal for help to find a missing vulnerable person who hasn’t been seen since Monday 9th March.

Concern is growing for 60-year-old Philip Runacres, who went missing from the Heathfield Close area of Bath.

He has not been seen since but police know he has connections in Bath and he may still be in the city.

Philip is described as a white man, 5ft 9ins tall of medium build. He has blue eyes, wears glasses and has short dark brown coloured hair which is greying.

It is not known what he was wearing when he was last seen but he had a black rucksack with him.

He regularly visits Bristol and Bath city centres.

He is also known to drink alcohol regularly and may appear withdrawn or depressed.

Officers are appealing for Philip, or anyone that sees him, to contact them by calling 101, quoting reference 5220059838.
