Missing person - Johnny Corcoran NOW FOUND

[madmum]

Just to let you know that thankfully Johnny has now been found in Peckham Rye Park, a bit sun burnt and thirsty but still smiling! A massive thank you to Will the park keeper!

Thank you ED Forum?..

Hi All,

My Uncle is missing, he was last seen at home in Nunhead around lunchtime yesterday.

Johnny has a form of Dementia, his short term memory is really poor which means he wont have a clue where he has been or what he was doing, his condition also means he wont eat or drink unless prompted to do so.

Johnny has no ID, Phone, Money or Oyster on him.

Johnny has lived in the area all his life and is well known in most of the pubs on Lordship Lane ( i have left my number with a couple of pubs that were his regular haunts). He used to live on HIndmans Road. We know he wont travel out of the area. He also liked to sit on the benches at the top of Peckham Rye park over looking Harris Boys.

Johnny Corcoran is 61 years old

5ft 8

slim build

balding with white hair

he has quite a red face with some facial hair (also white)

Last seen wearing black/navy tracksuit bottoms and a light grey long sleeved top.

He has no other medical needs.

He is not harmful and will appear very happy and smiley and be convinced he has been to work (road sweeper for Southwark).

The police have been informed and I have called all the local hospitals, My next stop is the park keeper at Peckham Rye.

As you can imagine we are incredibly worried about him.

If you see him PLEASE call me 07510 705557

Many Thanks xxx

We could all copy your post on FB for you if that's ok with you. Sure we all have local friends who could keep an eye out for him.

Dear MadMum -- that photo of Mr Corcoran looks... archival.

Against the chance of this happening again, might you stow away a few current snapshots?

Glad he's back with you.

Brilliant!
