Search teams have been scouring woodlands for a missing man.

Police cars, vans and forensics teams were deployed this afternoon to Clowes Wood in Radfall Road, between Canterbury and Whitstable, to search for Nick Surridge.

Mr Surridge reportedly disappeared from his home in Broomfield, near Herne Bay, yesterday morning.

A Coastguard helicopter also carried out a search for him last night.

His family has urged anyone with knowledge of his whereabouts to contact the police.
