46-year-old Deering was recently sleeping rough in Blackpool.

He is originally from the Wakefield area of West Yorkshire but is known to travel extensively across the Lancashire, Greater Manchester and West Yorkshire areas often walking along canal towpaths, long distance paths and coastal walks.

He may be camping alongside one of these routes.

A Blackpool Police spokesman said: "If you have any information please contact us on 101 quoting log LC-20180802-0775."
