Someone is reported missing every 90 seconds in the UK. Missing People offers a lifeline to the 170,000 people who go missing each year. For those left behind, we provide specialised support to ease the heartache and confusion, and help search for their missing loved ones.

In the time it takes you to read this, another person in the UK will reach a point of crisis. 

The cost of living means that more people are facing mental heath problems, exploitation, debt and food poverty. Children, so desperate to help make money for their families, are being exploited by gangs. Right now, no one is immune to these problems. 

Some people can’t see any escape. They go missing. They face harm.

Thankfully, in that moment of crisis there is hope. An exceptional team at Missing People are available, day and night. Without judgement. Reaching hundreds of missing adults and exploited children every week. Helping them to stay safe. Giving care and understanding to people on the brink of despair and suicide. 

But right now, 100 calls to our Helpline a month have to go unanswered. Today, with your help, we can answer those calls. Save lives. Help missing people find a way home.
