guidance on public benefit in deciding which activities the tharity should undertake.
Without volunteers, Missing People could not be a lifeline vthen someone disappe8rs.
Volunteers gain new experiences within the voluntary sector, leam from highly-trained
staff and gain and develop new skills that will stsy with them forever. Volunteers can
make a real difference to missing people and their families by giving their time at the
charity's central office in London, or in any part of the UK through our local volunteer
programme.
Activities delivered during the year were in engaging resources of providing programme
of COVID19 support in physical and mental health, food management, health and
nutrition and social and provisions during the pandemic. Delivery focused on how to
manage their health and wellbeing through lockdown and supporting them in reduced
