Christmas Appeal: Make a Difference For Families

For many, Christmas is a time of joy, family, and togetherness. But for the families of over 13,000 people who go missing every year in the UK, and the unknown number of 1,600 unidentified people whose lives ended without answers, this season brings heartbreak and unanswered questions.

Why Your Support Matters

We work tirelessly to bring hope and resolution. Whether it’s investigating long-forgotten cases, generating new leads, or supporting families as they navigate this difficult journey, your donations provide the resources we need to continue our vital work.

This year, we have reviewed over 174 cases of missing people and 90 cases of unidentified individuals, with 30 missing people and 3 unidentified individuals identified and reunited with their names.

These successes bring comfort to families and ensure that no one is forgotten.

Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us closer to answers and ensures that every person’s story matters.
