Concerns are growing for a teenager who has been missing for several days.

Phil Jones was last seen in Gravesend on Tuesday, September 12, but has since been unreachable.

The 16-year-old, who is believed to have links to the Dover area, does have belongings with him and a mobile phone, but has not been in touch with his family.

A post has appeared on the Missing Adults & Children in the UK Facebook Page, stating there are “great concerns” for his safety and well being.

The post states: “Have you seen Phil? Have you helped him?, do you have a teen that is friends with Phil have they told you they may think where Phil could be?

“If so please report it they will not be in trouble, Phil needs to be safely located. If you are friends with Phil and he told you something prior to him going missing you thought was strange but dismissed it, please tell your parents so they can tell the police.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Kent Police on 101.
