Appeal to find vulnerable man missing from Woolwich

Police are appealing for the public’s help to find a vulnerable man who is missing from Woolwich.

Paul Merrett, 28, was last seen leaving Greenwood House Memorial Hospital on January 22. 

It is possible that he got on to a bus going towards Shooters Hill, police said.

Mr Merrett is described as a white man, of a slim build with brown hair. 

He was last seen wearing a black jacket, a black jumper, blue jeans and light blue crocs.

Mr Merret, who has connections to Croydon, is vulnerable and members of the public are asked to contact the police directly rather than attempt to engage with him.

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 or post @MetCC ref CAD 2704/22JAN25.

To remain anonymous, contact the independent charity, Crimestoppers, on 0800 555 111.
