Police are appealing for help to find an elderly man missing from his home in Mildmay Street, Canonbury.

Roy Aldridge, 74, was last seen at about 10.30am on Tuesday.

Mr Aldridge is described as white, of medium build with greying hair. He has a tattoo of an anchor on his left hand and a tattoo of a sword.

When last seen, he was wearing a light brown leather jacket, trousers and trainers.

Mr Aldridge has dementia and suffers a number of medical issues - and is without his medication.

Officers were informed of a possible sighting in Essex Road yesterday, but are growing increasingly concerned for Mr Aldridge’s welfare as he requires regular medication.

Anyone who has seen him is asked to contact Islington police via 101.
