A WOMAN from Welwyn Garden City has appealed for information about her missing brother, who may be trying to walk to the town from Penzance.

Mr Andrew Lambert, 45, who lives alone in the Cornish town, was reported missing on Saturday, October 13, but has not been seen since the beginning of the month.

His sister, Mrs Julie Clutterbuck of Handside Lane, said: "We are really worried about him.

"If anyone has seen him, please contact the police urgently."

A police spokesman said Mr Lambert, who was born in Borehamwood, had gone missing before, and it was believed he was trying to walk to Hertfordshire.

The 6ft 3in tall man, considered vulnerable as he is on benefit and has no money, has dark hair with greying flecks, broad shoulders and a medium build.
