THE PARENTS of missing Winchester man Benjamin Bailey have renewed their appeals for information after spending a miserable Christmas without their son.

Charlotte and Mike Bailey have not heard from Benjamin, 28, since the end of November when he visited his sister in London.

Mr Bailey, 54, of Grove Road, Shawford, near Winchester, and family members spent Christmas Day itself distributing posters of Benjamin at charities and shelters throughout the capital.

Police are very concerned for his safety, as he is known to be suffering from depression. Anyone who has seen Benjamin should contact Det Sgt Janis Adair at Winchester CID on 0845 045 4545.
