Police say Stuart Keppel was last seen at around 3pm on August 18 on Rosemary Lane in Bartle. He is believed to have taken a taxi from there into Preston, but has not been seen since.

The 54-year-old is said to have links to Salford and Halifax and police believe it is possible he may have travelled to those areas.
