Police are concerned for the welfare of a missing pensioner who may have travelled to Dorset.
Steven Down, 67, was last seen leaving his home in Ore, Sussex, to visit the local shops at around 10am on Thursday (11), but he failed to return.
Officers and his family are concerned for his welfare due to his vulnerability.
Dorset Police say it is believed he may have travelled to the Corfe Castle area.
Steven is described as white, of thin build, with short grey hair and stubble.
He was last seen wearing a cream padded hooded jacket, a thick cream jumper, beige cargo trousers and white trainers. He is possibly wearing a watch and a silver chain.
Anyone who sees Steven is asked not to approach him, but to contact police immediately on 999, or alternatively, call 101 with any information.
