Northumbria Police have carried out extensive enquiries and are now releasing new images of Jess with his family's permission as part of a renewed public appeal.

"Our search for Jess remains ongoing and we'd encourage anyone who may have details of where he may be – no matter how small or insignificant they feel it is – to get in touch.

"Your information could prove vital in helping us trace him.”

Jess is believed to have been in Edinburgh before he was reported missing.

Officers have not ruled out the possibility that he may have returned to Scotland.

He is described as a white man, 5 ft 11 in tall, of slim build, with short brown hair and blue eyes.

Anyone who sees Jess or has information about his whereabouts is asked to contact Northumbria Police, either by direct message on social media or via the live chat and report forms on the force website.

Those unable to use these contact methods should call 101.

Police have advised members of the public to quote reference number NP-20260316-0367.
