AN URGENT appeal has been launched as concerns grow for a man reported missing from Irvine.

Neil Hanvey was last seen in the Rigfoot area of the town at around 12.15pm on Wednesday, May 14.

The 44-year-old is described as around five feet and seven inches tall, of medium build, with grey hair and a beard.

When he was last seen, he was known to be wearing black cargo shorts, a grey t-shirt and a grey hooded sweatshirt.

Inspector Darren Muir added: “We are increasingly concerned for Neil’s welfare, and would ask anyone who has seen him, or knows where he might be to get in touch, or for Neil himself to contact family, friends or our officers.

“Anyone with information about Neil’s whereabouts should call Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 3555 of May 14, 2025.”
