A 26-year-old man has been reported missing in Thailand after his family lost contact with him more than eight weeks ago.

Daniel Davies was last seen on March 13 on Phi Phi Island, a popular tourist destination in southern Thailand. He had been staying at the Hangover Hostel in Bangkok prior to his disappearance.

A missing person report has been filed with Dyfed-Powys Police, and the case is now listed under reference number DP-20250329-215.

Daniel is described as being around 6ft tall, of slim build, with blonde hair and a beard. He also has tattoo sleeves on both arms.

Echoes of the Lost – a national missing persons initiative – has now joined the appeal alongside SARS Cymru, urging anyone with information to come forward. In a statement, they said: “Daniel, if you happen to see this post, please get in contact with your family. They are worried. If you wish to message us to pass information along, please feel free to do so.”

His aunt, Nicola Doran, has been sharing emotional appeals online, writing: “My nephew Daniel Davies, 26, from Llanelli – he’s gone missing in Bangkok, Thailand. He’s been reported and is now a missing person. No one has had any contact in weeks.”

Friends and family have been spreading the appeal across social media, hoping someone in Thailand may have seen him. One post reads: “Can all my mates out in Thailand, Bangkok area, please share this and keep eyes out for my lil’ kuzen – he’s been missing 8 weeks over there.”

Daniel’s disappearance has been reported to Thai police, and the UK Foreign Office is understood to be aware of the case.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Dyfed-Powys Police by emailing 101@dyfed-powys.police.uk or calling 101, quoting reference DP-20250329-215.

DYFED-POWYS POLICE have issued new photos in the search for Isabelle and Daniel, who are both aged 16 and have been reported missing from their homes in the Cardigan area on Monday April 7, 2025.

Enquiries have led to a new confirmed sighting  of them both at Llandunno train station at 8.20pm on Monday, where they asked for directions to the Dolgellau area.

Isobel is described as 5ft 3 and usually has blonde hair, however she may have dyed her hair to a darker colour. She was last seen wearing a black parker style coat with fur edge, grey jogging bottoms, carrying a large black backpack.

Daniel is described to be 6ft 1 with short dark brown hair, with shaved sides. He was last seen wearing dark blue jeans, black t-shirt, and a black collared coat, carrying a large camping backpack, which is black, red and grey. 

Both are believed to have taken a change of clothes with them and may now be wearing something different.

It is believed that they have taken camping equipment with them and have connections to the Gloucestershire, Merseyside and North Wales areas. 

Their families are increasingly concerned for their safety and welfare and eagerly await their safe return home.

DI Rebecca Thomas said: “We are continuing our search to find Isobel and Daniel. “We know that they purchased camping equipment but they have left their homes without any communication and their family and friends are becoming increasingly concerned as they have had no contact with Isabelle and Daniel for almost a week. “It is also know that they don’t have their mobile phones on them.

“I would ask anyone who has seen them to get in touch.

“I would especially appeal to Isabelle and Daniel to get in touch with the police or family so we can ensure that they are safe.”

If you have seen Isabelle and Daniel, or have information about their whereabouts, please, let us know:

WORSHIPPERS gathered in St Davids today (Sunday, Apr 13) for a special Palm Sunday service at St Davids Cathedral, marking the beginning of Holy Week in the Christian calendar.

Clergy in traditional robes processed through the Cathedral grounds carrying palm fronds, symbolising the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem, when crowds laid palm branches in His path.

The annual procession, steeped in tradition, is a moving visual display of faith and community. Members of the cathedral chapter and congregation followed in reverence, before taking part in the liturgy inside the cathedral.

Palm Sunday marks the start of the most solemn week in the Church year, leading up to Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Services throughout Holy Week will reflect on the Passion of Christ and culminate in the celebration of His resurrection.

A spokesperson for the cathedral said the service was well attended and expressed gratitude for the continued support of the local and visiting worshipping community.
