POLICE are still trying to track down a man who has been missing from his North Yorkshire home for more than a year.

Victor Bell, 39, was last seen by family members on March 14 last year, when he declared he was going on a camping trip.

His family alerted police on July 11 when they became concerned for his safety and welfare as he had not contacted them since.

A regular and keen camper, he previously camped in Scotland and Bridlington but could be anywhere in the UK.

Officers are appealing for anyone who may recognise him or may have seen a lone man camping who answers his description, to get in touch.

He is around 5ft 8in, of slim build with light brown hair, a pale complexion, brown eyes and wears glasses. He wears straight legged jeans, a black shower-proof coat, a green fishing hat, tan walking boots and carries a black rucksack. He will be travelling on foot or public transport.

Anyone with any information should contact York police on 0845 6060 247
