He is from the Chesterfield area and also has links to Sheffield and Nottinghamshire.

Investigations have been ongoing since then to locate David, but have so far been unsuccessful.

David, who is a keen walker, is thought to be around 5ft 9ins tall and of a slim build with grey hair.

The photos are from some time ago, but it is hoped someone who knows David may recognise him.

Have you seen David? Do you know where he might be?
