I’m trying to find someone in the Bradford area and they seem to be missing/ just vanished 10yrs ago

Just wondered if any officers could shed some light or know of them

pretty sure GDPR etc would prevent them giving you any information and all access to the PNC would be logged so they would need a better reason than somebody asked me to track somebody down.

I assume you've tried all the usuals...

Social networks
Companies house director search
Electoral roll

All of the above for people they know or their family who you could ask

Write a letter to their last known address, maybe they'll know where to forward it?

Worth the cost of a stamp.

In that case Farcebook is the answer.

There's always people on their looking for old colleagues on the dedicated NARPO groups for retired officers, it works really well.

I think I’ve found them I last saw them in 2012

Seems life hasn’t been too kind,

They lived in shipley got in with the wrong crowd unfortunately then moved to Durham and now ended up inside!


Quite sad really! Would like to know which prison they’re in though

Try this site to find a prisoner: https://prisonguide.co.uk/find-a-prisoner/

I use 192.com to try and find people. If the name is quite rare you stand a good chance of finding them even if you just put England. If you can narrow it down to an area its pretty good. If you know the wife's name or the kids even better. But, you do have to pay around £15 to get all their details.

Thanks, my only issue is I don’t know their date of birth but I’ve emailed to see if I can find their location and prison number

FB doesn't work. You'll find umpteen people of the same name so have to message them all. FB actually hides messages to people not linked to you in a secret folder that most people don't even know about or know how to access to check. You don't get notifications.
FB is stupid as are the majority of people on it.
