Sergeant Gordon Sweeney, from Giffnock Police Station, said: “William has dementia and his family are extremely worried about him and we are appealing for members of the public to assist us in finding him.

“He is known to spend time in Newton Mearns and Clarkston and also has family in the Springburn/Milton area. He has no money or a bus pass in his possession so will be on foot.
