At Risk of Going Missing Form

Helping emergency services find missing vulnerable people FAST

Every year, Kent Police receives approximately 10,000 missing person reports and an increasing number of these are for people living with dementia.


Issued jointly by Kent Police, Kent Search and Rescue and National Police Air Service, the ‘At Risk of Going Missing’ form provides quick, detailed information about a person’s background and history to help police to identify priority areas to search, often speeding up the time taken to find them, particularly if the person is living with dementia.

The form, which is handed out by all agencies, allows police, Kent Search and Rescue and Kent Fire and Rescue Service to gather as much useful information as possible. It gives an indication of someone’s mobility, preferred mode of travelling, routes frequented, general health issues and significant places they are likely to gravitate towards. The form enables all this information to be documented in advance.

Completed forms are kept in a safe place by families or carers so they can be found quickly if the person is reported missing. They are also stored on police systems, meaning officers have easy access to the information when needed most.

Thanks to John Walker for the information.
