Police are growing increasingly concerned for a Clacton man who has been missing for five months.
Timothy Salmon has not had access to money since he left the area in May.
The 45-year-old left clothes and personal possessions in his room in the town's High Street.
The father-of-three used to make regular contact with his mother in London and his son in Clacton, especially around the time of his birthday, which is in June.
Police say he has lived in Clacton most of his life, is well-known in the area and is known to frequent pubs in the town.
Anyone who can help should call Clacton Police 01255 221312.
