POLICE are concerned for the welfare of a missing 25-year-old Bradford man and they are appealing for the public's help to find him.

Joseph Weech, 25, was reported missing from the Bierley area of Bradford at around lunchtime today (Saturday).

He is described as a white male, 5ft6, dark brown hair, with brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a red top and grey trainers.

He has links to North and South Wales and in particular Aberystwyth, so he may have travelled there.

Police are concerned for his welfare.
