CBRoad Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 How about contacting the refuse and recycling teams, they have people on the streets day and night. Local churches, Dial a Ride, bus garages....I have asked the Catford forum to put it on their site toPraying for some good news soon Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/23866-missing-elderly-man-from-nunhead/page/4/#findComment-552014 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peckhamgatecrasher Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 Jenny the street cleaner in Lordship Lane has leaflets and she is letting her colleagues know. Similar bods in Waterloo were wonderfully helpful.Local churches of all denominations are being so helpful.Local buses that we can catch are displaying the poster and have been stalwarts.Dial a ride we haven't thought of and will pursue.Thank you.

Earl of East Dulwich Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 BumpSaw a poster on Barry road tonight when I was out running and just come on here to see if there was anything about it. I will share this with as many people as possible on facebook etc and will organise my routes running around the areas mentioned above. Will also tell everyone i know in the area. Really hope you can find him. Thoughts are with you all.

Sue Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Also how about charities which help the homeless, do soup runs etc - they are likely to notice if there is someone new on their patch? Is it St Mungos?Sorry haven't done the newsletter yet, but it will go out tonight.

muffins78 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 You know what, Earl of East Dulwich, you've given me an idea!! Thats great about changing your running to see if he is along the routes mentioned. I don't run, but, if enough runners out there were available to help - how about a properly organised run, where people would cover certain areas on their route? People will be exercising as normal, but there would be potentially a good sized area covered, all at the same time! I hope that makes sense.

Create a thread on here, link it to the FB page and other pages on FB? Find out which areas people can cover, where it would prudent to cover?? Help!!! :) Organise a number of meeting points for people so they can set off at the same time?

Pickle Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Good idea. I run regularly around the local area and happy to be involved if I can.

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 Thanks Mufins78. We know that the nunhead cemetery, peckham rye, belair park, brenchly garden areas are good any local to the nunhead peckham area would be great.

muffins78 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Okay, let me start a separate thread, so that other ideas and messages don't get mixed up with a "running" thread. And see what interest we can generate. Can people post the thread wherever it may be helpful and go from there. But seriously, I dont know the areas at all, so thats why I will need help on this. I will get the ball moving for now :) And thank you Pickle!

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 Not to my knowledge. We do not think that he could have made it that far because of his legs. But my daughter did want to check it. so maybe that would be another place to look?

muffins78 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 My friend works in TfL, I asked had she any ideas what could be done. She said to contact the external press office, they may be able to help. ([email protected] & 0845 604 4141 (for media queries only I believe from the site).She said if he had a Freedom pass the police could try and trace his movements. I am sure that this will already have been done, but thought I'd repeat what she said, just in case.

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 Thanks Liz - I will ask my daughter, she does technical stuff like that, I haven't a clue about social networking.Alas, muffins he left his freedom pass, wallet, passport etc at home. TfL is a good suggestion. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/23866-missing-elderly-man-from-nunhead/page/4/#findComment-552120 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SebsC Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Contacting local running clubs might be a good idea as they would be able to get the message out to all their runners.

boosboss Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Was the Waterloo sighting confirmed? Could he have been trying to get to somewhere and is there anywhere in his history where trains from Waterloo may go to, that may have some sort of connection ie Southhampton etc? Just thinking that it may be worth looking further afield within the UK. I've been FB'ing and Tweeting this relentlessly and will continue to do. I also postered Elephant & Castle tube station and encourage anyone with the facility to poster to do so anywhere they can.

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 It hasn't but in all honesty he is not fit enough to get up there. (One Tree Hill that is). Though anything is worth trying.

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 The Waterloo sighting wasn't as credible as the Police first thought. Not completely ruled out, but not as reliable as first believed.Looking anywhere is worth a shot.

Debi Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Shared on FB and Twitter. Will also tell partner (who runs locally) and sons to look out for him. I'll also email East Dulwich Writers' Group - 250+ people on list. This must be agony for those who know and love him. Thoughts are with you and hoping for a happy resolution.
