CONCERNS are growing over the whereabouts of a man who has been missing for over a week.

Police have again launched a public appeal following the disappearance of Leam Burfield, from Great Harwood last week.

The 27-year-old has been described as a white man, who is 5ft 10 inches in height, of medium build and has dark brown cropped hair.

He was last seen at his home address in Great Harwood on July 15, but police enquiries have confirmed that he boarded a Virgin Train bound for London Euston at Preston Station just after 2pm on July 16.

A CCTV image of Mr Burfield has now been released by police.

At that time he was carrying a black rucksack containing clothes and a laptop. Officers said he has also previously travelled to Scotland and Sheffield, where he has friends.

If you have any information about Leam or his current whereabouts contact the police on 101 or 01772 614444 quoting log LC-20180818-0253.
