FOUR supporters of the National Missing Persons Helpline arrive in the region today as part of a 650-mile charity walk.
Derek Burns, from West Lothian, Kevin Brown, from Dagenham, Greater London, Jackie Paling, from Windsor, and Mark Holmes, from Surrey, started the walk in Edinburgh on May 15.
Mr Burns' son, also called Derek, went missing 14 years ago during a visit to London.
The walkers are expected to arrive at Kensington Palace on Tuesday, July 1.
This afternoon they will arrive at Darlington Market Square and set off for Northallerton, in North Yorkshire, tomorrow.
The National Missing Persons Helpline supports families left behind when someone goes missing and tries to help missing people regain contact with their loved ones.
