Before you submit

• Use a recent photo where possible (or upload CCTV later).
• If you include GPS/what3words, ensure it is the last seen location, not your home address.
• Avoid rumours. Stick to facts you know are true.

Safeguarding note: never share sensitive personal info in public comments.

Halo colours & risk indicators

We use halos around the case photo to show risk at a glance. This helps the public and responders prioritise attention and sightings.

Red halo: Under 18 (Amber Alert)
Green halo: Mental health concerns
Yellow halo: 65 or over
Purple halo: Physical / medical concerns
Blue halo: All other cases

Halos do not replace police risk assessment — they are a quick visual signal to help the community respond responsibly.

What happens next

• Your report creates a case page that can collect sightings & comments.

• If you signed in, the case can be linked to your account for easier management.

If urgent and someone is at risk right now, always call 999 first.
