Police have issued an urgent appeal to help find a 23-year-old man who has been missing for almost two months.

Alfie Horrocks, from Fleetwood but with links to Warrington and Knutsford, was last seen by his family on July 26 and was reported missing to Lancashire Police on September 10.

Officers say extensive enquiries have been carried out since Alfie was reported missing.

But they are now appealing to the public for information that could help trace him.

Alfie is described as being 5ft 10in tall with dark brown hair and may also have facial hair.

When he was last seen, he was wearing blue Canterbury tracksuit bottoms, a tan-coloured long-sleeved T-shirt, black socks and grey trainers.

Blackpool Police said Alfie is known to sleep rough in parks and on the streets, and are asking residents to remain vigilant in those areas.

He also has links to Blackpool, Wyre, and Blackburn.

A spokesperson for Blackpool Police said: “We're asking for your help to find Alfie Horrocks, who is missing.

“Since he was reported missing, enquiries to locate Alfie have been ongoing offline, but we're now asking for your help.

“He is known to sleep out in parks, or on the street, so we are asking you to keep an eye out for him in those areas.”

Anyone who sees Alfie is asked to call 999 immediately.

Those with information or footage that could assist the search should contact police on 101, quoting log 0259 of September 10, 2026.
