Saturday marks six weeks since dad-of-one Paul Kerrison went missing - and his family are now re-appealing for help to find him.
Paul, from Eston, has not been seen since the evening of Saturday, October 25, in the Birkdale Road area of New Marske.
His mum Susan reported the 30-year-old missing after he failed to return to their home on Jubilee Road after a night out.
At the time of his disappearance leaflets were handed out by Cleveland Police - who said they believed Paul may have attempted to seek refuge in a garden or outbuilding within the New Marske area.
And sister Georgina Carr has again appealed for anyone with any information as to his whereabouts to contact police.
“The last six weeks has been torture for us,” said Georgina, 22.

Middlesbrough family are concerned about their missing family member Paul Kerrison
“We feel like efforts to find him have slowly stopped so we are hoping to jog peoples memories of him any way we can.
“It is difficult to carry on with normal daily life and we are all struggling with not knowing if he is safe.”
Paul, who is dad to five-year-old Kieren, had been released from prison three weeks prior to his disappearance.
He is also epileptic and requires daily medication.
Georgina added: “Paul is very outgoing and friendly. He would stop and talk to anyone, and that we why we would hope someone must have spoken to him.
“When he went missing he wasn’t his usual self, I don’t think he was mentally all there.
“We have never been a really close family, but since Paul’s disappearance we have come together.
"He would always ring our mum, he knows the number off by heart so there would be no reason for him to not get in touch.
"We need to know he’s safe, we need closure.”
Paul, a former St Peter’s School pupil and dad to five-year-old Kieren, is described as around 6ft 3ins tall, of slim build with short, with brown hair and was last seen wearing a black tracksuit top and bottoms and Nike Air Max trainers.
He also has distinctive tattoos on his upper arms.
Detective Superintendent Mick Hunt said: “As part of the ongoing search for missing Paul Kerrison we have a team of officers working from a dedicated incident room and are carrying out more than 330 actions.
“Officers have carried out large-scale and extensive area searches with the advice and guidance of a national search advisor, and enlisted the assistance of specialist resources from neighbouring forces and Mountain Rescue colleagues.
“We have also distributed leaflets to the local community in the area where Paul was last seen and appeals have been carried out locally and nationally in order to make people aware that he is missing and to encourage anyone who may have seen Paul to contact us.
“Support has been provided to his family and we are in regular contact with them.
"The concern for Paul remains a priority and the search for him remains absolutely active.”
Anyone with information should contact police on 101.
