About Missing People

Missing People provide support for missing children, vulnerable adults and families left in limbo. The charity offers families of the missing with specialist advice and practical support and also searches - securing publicity that could end years of heartache. Missing children face many dangers from physical and sexual abuse to sleeping rough. Through Runaway Helpline we can provide these young people with a lifeline of hope. And its not just children in desperate situations you can help; Missing People enables vulnerable adults to pass a Message Home. Through this service, the charity gives adults the opportunity to take the first step to making contact, while reassuring those left behind that they are safe.
