Police are growing increasingly concerned over the welfare of a missing pensioner they believe could be in Islington.

George Campbell, 83, as last seen at his home address at around 6.30am yesterday.

He is described as having short grey hair and a slight grey beard. He was wearing grey suit trousers, a beige shirt with brown stripes, a navy mac, black loafer-type shoes and a grey panama hat.

It is believed he may have travelled from his home in Chestnut, Hertfordshire, to Islington.

Officers are growing increasingly concerned for George’s welfare and would urge anyone who sees him, or knows of his whereabouts, to contact police immediately via the non-emergency number 101.
