"If we can get enough people there then we could set a second lot off half an hour later covering the same area again.

"If we find nothing we can all move onto another area that has been recommended to us.

"It would be great to do a huge search involving as many people as possible. Please Help if you can."

Peter, from Whitby, is described as a white, about 6ft 1in tall, and of muscular/athletic build, unshaven and his hair is a greying/brown colour which is slightly thinning.

He was last seen wearing a blue hoodie underneath a blue waist length jacket, loose grey cotton jogging bottoms, and blue Nike trainers. It is believed that he could also have been wearing a blue baseball cap (as pictured in the above image).

However, since his disappearance he may have changed into a pair of blue jeans.

Officers believe that he may be sleeping rough so may appear more dishevelled than in his pictures.
