Hello everyone,

Thought I would post this on here. Matthew Wilcox is a good friend of one of my mates. My friend is doing a sponsered 10k run at an organised event on the 13th of March to raise funds to help for the search of Matthew and help his family.

Any donation, no matter how large or small, even 50p would be great! It all helps and would be greatly appreciated.

HELP FIND MATTHEW WILCOX!!
0845 6060606
Matt went out with friends on Thursday 25th February to Club Mission in Leeds. He was separated from his friends whilst in the club and was reportedly last seen around 2.30am when he was escorted out of the back door of the club and told to get in a taxi by a bouncer who judged he was too drunk to be inside the club. It is not known whether Matt ever got in a taxi.

Matt, who is a 1st year studying Geography at the Uni of Leeds, lives in Clarence Docks Accomodation and has been known to walk the same way home after a night out.

Matt is around 6"1, slim/medium build, with his trademark blonde hair and black glasses. He is thought to have been wearing a light coloured shirt, dark jeans and black pumps.

It is really out of character for Matt to dissapear like this.

Please invite friends to join the group especially people in leeds. Anything anyone knows however small could be helpful.

WEST YORKSHIRE POLICE OFFICERS ARE CARRYING OUT SEARCHES AND ENQUIRIES TO FIND MATTHEW, AND WOULD URGE ANYONE WITH INFORMATION TO CONTAT 08456060606

THE POLICE HAVE GOT SOME QUESTIONS, PLEASE ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS IF YOU CAN!!!!!!

1/ DID YOU SEE MATTHEW IN THURSDAY 25TH OR FRIDAY 26TH FEBRUARY?

2/ WERE YOU WITH MATTHEW O...R IN THE MISSION NIGHT CLUB THAT EVENING?
3/ DID YOU TAKE ANY PHOTOS IN THE NIGHT CLUB THAT NIGHT?

4/ DID YOU SPEAK TO MATTHEW IN THE DAYS BEFORE HE WENT MISSING?

5/ HAVE YOU SEEN MATTHEW SINCE HE LEFT MISSION?

With the sheer volume of CCTV in Britain's town centres I'm amazed anyone could just dissapear these days.

Hope your friend turns up safe and well.

ETA. Was about to suggest a Facebook group but appears there already is one.

Seems the news is bad.

RIP

This is the second time a student has died in this tragic way and i now hope that the council will do something about that f**king river without proper safety.
Devastating news for his family.
But there is a personal duty of care to yourself to not get so pissed you fall into a river.
Not the councils fault for no railings.

Lots of people posting on FB blame the bouncers and taxi drivers. Insane.

No, they should concrete the river and put a few more pubs on it.

A colleague / friend of mine went missing after a night out in a club in Leeds, CCTV only picked up a couple of his movements.

Unfortunately his body was dragged from the river nearly 3 weeks laterfrown

Nobody actually knows how it happened!

Sad, but if you get so pissed you can't look after yourself or your mates
don't, then there is nobody else to blame.

Never a good idea to get blinding drunk, especially if one is going to end up staggering home by oneself. Safety in numbers and all that.

There's a bloody great river right next to the Clarence Dock.

Yup same years as Jack. Mate was on the same course as him, I didn't really know him personally though.
