CONCERN is growing for an 81-year-old man who has been missing since yesterday.
Samuel Beckford, of Hempshill Vale, was last seen at about 1pm.
He is known to have caught a bus from Hempshill Lane, near the Northern Cemetery, into Bulwell town centre at around that time and may have visited betting shops while in Bulwell yesterday afternoon.
His family raised the alarm late last night when he failed to return home.
Mr Beckford is black, around 5ft 9ins tall, of slim build and with short dark, greying hair. He was wearing blue jeans, a navy coat and thick black soled shoes.
He walks slowly, with the aid of a stick, and does have some difficulty with his speech.
Anyone who believes they may have seen Mr Beckford should contact Notts Police urgently on 101, quoting incident number 883.
